Buzhong Yiqi Pill is a very commonly used Chinese patent medicine, if it is prescribed into a decoction, it is called Buzhong Yiqi Soup. Buzhong Yiqi soup originated in the Jin and Yuan dynasties, and was the recipe of Li Dongyuan, a famous doctor in the Jin and Yuan dynasties. He created different prescriptions for different spleen and stomach problems, and Buzhong Yiqi Tang is one of them, and it is also the most representative.
Many people don't have time to decoct medicine, so today we will talk about the finished medicine - Buzhong Yiqi Pill, which is also much more convenient to take.
Composition: Astragalus, ginseng, atractylodes, cimicifuga, bupleurum, tangerine peel, angelica, boiled licorice.
Whether we study Chinese patent medicine or decoction, we must be good at induction and summary. The indications of Buzhong Yiqi Pill are mainly spleen qi deficiency, which is manifested as: mental fatigue, weakness of limbs, low voice, abdominal distension and diarrhea, and these symptoms can be improved after taking Buzhong Yiqi Pill for a period of time. There are also many people who are cured of constipation after taking it.
This shows that Buzhong Yiqi Pill has a two-way regulating effect, or the effect of spleen is two-way, and the spleen is sufficient, which is neither easy to constipation nor diarrhea.
Diarrhea caused by spleen qi deficiency is long-term, which Western medicine calls chronic diarrhea. It is different from acute diarrhea caused by sleeping cold and unclean diet, and its root is in the spleen, spleen qi deficiency, and weakened fixed intake function. After the food is eaten, it cannot be absorbed and is quickly lost.
There are many kinds of constipation, and qi deficiency and constipation are very common in middle-aged and elderly people. Qi deficiency and weak propulsion cause the intestinal contents to stay and block, and it is difficult to discharge, which is constipation.
We use astragalus and ginseng to directly replenish qi, astragalus is the king's medicine, the power of astragalus to replenish qi is soft, the strength of ginseng is relatively large, and ginseng is used to supplement astragalus.
Tangerine peel promotes qi, when we replenish qi, but the qi does not run, it will also affect the effect of qi replenishment, tangerine peel can promote the operation of the qi machine and prevent the qi from stagnating. Qi replenishment and qi are complementary to each other.
Angelica can replenish blood, qi deficiency will lead to less blood, and less blood will make qi more deficient, so qi and blood should be replenished together.
Atractylodes macrocephalus and licorice invigorate qi and spleen, let the spleen and stomach function normally, and convert food into qi and blood.
Cimicifuga and Bupleurum are lifted upwards to lift the qi up, qi deficiency and weak lifting will lead to qi trapping, which is further developed from qi deficiency, so the tonifying and benefiting qi pills can not only replenish qi, it can also lift qi.
Qi deficiency constipation often has such characteristics: dry or not dry stool, very hard when defecation, it is easy to sweat when you exert yourself hard, you have no strength after defecation, and you feel very tired.
If you always push too hard during bowel movements, it will take too long to defecate, and it is easy to cause hemorrhoids. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the appearance of hemorrhoids is often due to spleen deficiency and qi depression.
Many people do not have hemorrhoids first, but the symptoms of spleen qi deficiency appear first, and spleen deficiency causes dampness, dampness and heat, resulting in hemorrhoids. When hemorrhoids develop to a certain extent, hemorrhoids protrude, which is qi deficiency and sagging, and there is no ability to fix it. It has the power of lifting, and can be matched with a Diyu Huaijiao Pill at the same time, which not only clears away heat and dampness, but also takes into account the spleen and stomach.
