Coix lachryma-jobi Fuzi Patrinia Powder is a traditional classic prescription for treating intestinal carbuncle, which is composed of Coix lachryma, Fuzi and Patrinia. It has the effects of invigorating spleen, promoting diuresis, breaking blood and expelling pus. At present, this prescription and its modified formula are widely used in the treatment of ulcerative colitis.

Ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory lesion confined to mucous membrane and submucosa. Its main clinical manifestations are abdominal pain, diarrhea, heavy feeling after acute diarrhea, mucus pus and bloody stool, etc. In recent years, due to changes in diet structure, accelerated pace of life, environmental pollution and other factors, its incidence rate has obviously increased. Because it belongs to precancerous lesions of colon cancer, it is particularly important to give active and effective treatment.

At present, western medicine mainly treats ulcerative colitis with sulfasalazine salicylic acid preparation, but the long-term curative effect is not ideal, and it is easy to relapse after stopping taking medicine.

Chinese medicine believes that this disease is located in the large intestine, which can involve the liver, kidney and spleen, especially the spleen and kidney. Invasion of exogenous pathogens, improper diet and internal injuries of seven emotions can lead to spleen-qi deficiency, disorganization of transport, stagnation of damp-heat in the large intestine, resulting in diarrhea, abdominal pain and other symptoms, and spleen-qi deficiency plus diarrhea for a long time can eventually lead to spleen-kidney yang deficiency; Deficiency of Yang-qi leads to loss of warmth in the large intestine, blood stasis and damage, which leads to pus and abdominal pain. Deficiency of spleen-yang leads to loss of circulation and diarrhea. Therefore, in view of the etiology and pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis with spleen-kidney yang deficiency, we should pay attention to eliminating damp-heat evil while warming kidney and invigorating spleen.
