At 10 o'clock last night, a friend called me and said that the child at home had a fever, and the Lianhua Qingwen that I had eaten for a day did not work.
consultation: Have a fever for one day, your mouth is dry and bitter, your eyes are dry, your throat is slightly ache, and you don’t like to eat, so you drink a bowl of porridge a day without sweating.
You should take Xiao Chaihu Decoction, add some cinnamon twig platycodon, or a little gypsum.
Lianhua Qingwen is too cold, the more you eat, the worse your appetite is.
I have given a method, soak my feet in hot water for half an hour, and I sweated. This morning, I said that my fever had subsided.
is snatching medicine, if it is medicine, it doesn’t matter whether it is suitable or not, who makes us ordinary people not understand? In addition, experts are leading the rhythm randomly, drinking alcohol to prevent COVID-19 , lemons prevent COVID-19, canned food to cure colds, handsome people are not prone to illness. Listen, are these human words? If you have some common sense, you won’t believe these nonsense. You respect objective laws and have a long way to go.
Why doesn’t Lianhua Qingwen work? Let's analyze its composition and see how it should be used.
Lianhua Qingwen composition:
Forsythia , honeysuckle, roasted ephedra , fried bitter almonds, gypsum, Isatis root , Mianma Guanzhong , Houttuynia cordata , patchouli , rhubarb , Rhodiola , Rhodiola , Menthol , Licorice .
This is based on Maxing Shigan Decoction. In fact, almost all Chinese patent medicines for treating pneumonia and are based on Maxing Shigan Decoction, including Feining Granules for treating children's coughs.
Let’s first select Maxing Shigan Decoction and take a look:
" Treatise on Febrile Diseases " says: "If you sweat and have a wheezing, and you don’t have a severe fever, Maxing Shigan Decoction is the main one."
Simply put, this prescription is used to treat lung heat. The lung heat will cause symptoms such as dry mouth and thirst, exhalation, and sore throat. At this time, you should use gypsum. The cold gypsum is used to enter the air and remove the heat from the bottom of the kettle. Therefore, some people who are injured by stomach qi do not like to eat, and they cannot use gypsum. The more they use, the colder they become, the less appetite they have.
There are always reasons for lung heat. The main reason is that the exterior is indestructible, which means that the skin's function is limited, the normal metabolism is lost, and the calories cannot be released. The lungs are dominated by the skin and fur. The calories are stagnant to the lungs, and the lungs cannot bear it, so pneumonia, so the main cause of pneumonia is indestructible.
" Huangdi Neijing " says: Fire is depressed. If there is heat, it will be emitted.
Ephedra spreads the lungs and releases evil heat. Once the pores open, the external heat is discharged, which relieves the burden on the lungs and pneumonia is cured without treatment.
Almonds lower the lung qi and are an adjuvant medicine, helping ephedra and gypsum to clear the lungs and relieve asthma. roasted licorice can not only nourish the qi and harmonize the middle, but also combine with gypsum to produce fluid and quench thirst. Although the medicine is four flavors, it is rigorous in combination, so it clears and relieves lung heat and has a reliable therapeutic effect.
On the basis of Maxing Shigan Decoction, add Forsythia, honeysuckle, and mint to relieve exterior symptoms, add Guanzhong, Houttuynia cordata, and isatis root to clear heat and detoxify, add rhubarb to relieve fire, treat fever or high fever, chills, muscle aches, nasal congestion and runny nose, cough, headache, dry throat and sore throat, red tongue, yellow or yellow greasy tongue coating, etc.
Simply put, it means that evil qi enters the inside and turns into heat, and heat syndrome appears, showing sore throat, cough, fever, etc. Only patients can use Lianhua Qingwen in this case.
The case at the beginning of the article was obviously sick and half-in-the-face, and there was a poor appetite. Therefore, the first thing to consider is the prescription of Xiao Chaihu. It is not surprising that taking Maxing Shigan Decoction is ineffective.
So Chinese patent medicines are not bad, but the important thing is syndrome differentiation.
