Health for All says
Convulsions are a common symptom that is common in conditions such as epilepsy, seizures, febrile seizures, etc. Once the seizures occur, they are not only painful for the patient, but also have a serious impact on the patient's physical health and quality of life. Although modern medicine has made certain achievements in anticonvulsants, some patients with ** convulsions and refractory convulsions still have not been effectively relieved. These patients often place their hopes on the use of proprietary Chinese medicines. So, can modern Chinese medicine help these patients?
The answer is yes. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, convulsions are caused by pathological factors such as internal movement of liver wind, disturbance of phlegm and fire, and imbalance of qi and blood. Therefore, the key to convulsions in traditional Chinese medicine is to clear wind and heat, calm the liver and reduce fire, and promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis. In Chinese medicine, there are many classic prescriptions that can be used to relieve the onset of convulsive symptoms.
The first Chinese patent medicine is "Ephedra Aconite Licorice Soup", which is an ancient prescription with anti-convulsive effects. It is composed of ephedra, aconite, licorice and other medicines, which can dissipate wind and relieve the surface and warm the meridians. Clinical studies have shown that the drug is effective in relieving symptoms of seizures, febrile seizures, and other convulsive disorders. However, because it contains herbs such as ephedra and aconite, caution should be exercised when using it to avoid adverse effects caused by excessive dosage or prolonged use.
The second type of Chinese patent medicine is "Xiaoyaosan", which is a famous prescription whose main role is to regulate the liver, balance qi and blood, and dredge the meridians. It is composed of a variety of herbs such as Poria cocos, angelica, and white peony, which can soothe the liver and relieve depression, and regulate qi and blood. Xiaoyaosan is widely used to relieve the symptoms of convulsive diseases such as epilepsy and seizures, especially for convulsions caused by liver stagnation. Compared with ephedra aconite licorice soup, Xiaoyaosan is safer to use and is not prone to adverse reactions.
The third type of Chinese patent medicine is "Gastrodia Hook Vine Drink", which is a prescription with the main functions of calming the liver and relieving pain, regulating qi and calming the nerves. It is composed of herbs such as gastrodia, hook vine, and white peony, which can calm the liver and calm the nerves and relieve mental tension. Clinical studies have found that Gastrodia gastrodia hook vine drink has a significant effect on alleviating the convulsive symptoms caused by liver depression and fire. It not only relieves the symptoms of tics, but also improves the patient's emotional state and improves the quality of life.
The fourth type of Chinese patent medicine is "Magnet Pill", which is a famous prescription with the main effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. It is composed of herbs such as angelica, peach kernel, and red peony, which can invigorate blood circulation and dispel blood stasis, relieve pain and relieve pain. Clinical studies have shown that magnet pills have a certain effect on relieving the symptoms of convulsions caused by qi and blood stasis. It improves the patient's blood circulation, relieves neurovasospasm, and reduces the frequency of seizures.
The fifth type of Chinese patent medicine is "Shengmai San", which is a prescription whose main role is to invigorate qi and blood, and reconcile yin and yang. It is composed of herbs such as angelica, astragalus, and yam, which can replenish qi and nourish blood, and regulate yin and yang. Clinical studies have found that Shengmaisan has a certain effect on some patients with ** convulsions and refractory convulsions. It can boost the patient's immunity and regulate the balance of yin and yang in the body, thereby reducing the number of seizures.
To sum up, Chinese patent medicine has a certain efficacy in relieving the onset of ** and refractory convulsive symptoms. However, each patient's condition is different, and the choice of proprietary Chinese medicine needs to be made on an individual basis, and it is best to use it under the guidance of a professional Chinese medicine practitioner. At the same time, the principle of appropriate amount and timing should be followed when using proprietary Chinese medicines to avoid adverse reactions caused by excessive dosage or prolonged use.
