In the past, people thought that it had the function of expelling wind and dampness and dredging meridians, and it was often used to treat wet bone pain and rheumatoid arthritis by soaking in wine and taking decoction orally. Its essence is aristolochic acid and volatile oil, and alkaloids have analgesic effect. Covered up the appearance, and this aristolochic acid is now considered as a class L carcinogenic plant. This Chinese medicine doctor, especially the old folk Chinese medicine doctor, should pay attention to it. You should not go to any number of courses to treat rheumatism for people at will.

It was only because of its analgesic effect that it was used in the era of lack of medicine and medicine. The side effects of oral administration were very great. Most of them appeared after taking it for a week (at that time, pharmacological tests were only conducted for a week, and many people were fooled), such as nausea, abdominal pain, fatigue and palpitation, which had already begun to affect the kidneys. Some even boast that it has the function of treating cancer, and it feels really messy.
