The weather is hot in summer, and I believe many mothers are ready to have Sanfu patches for their babies. But is the Sanfu patch useful? Have you thought about this question?

As we all know, Sanfutie is a traditional Chinese medicine preparation. According to traditional Chinese medicine, moxibustion treatment is administered to the patient during the first, middle and last phases of the disease. For children with indications, especially those with rhinitis, chronic cough, asthma, weak constitution, and poor spleen and stomach function, it can warm yang and dispel cold to achieve the effect of treating and preventing diseases.

However, there is much debate about whether it is useful or whether it poses additional risks. This is not because of the dispute between the positions of "Chinese medicine powder" and "Western medicine powder", but because dog stickers have indeed caused some injury cases. Search the Internet for the keyword "volt tag" and you can see a lot of news about the harm caused by the use of volt tags.

For many people, the dog days not only mean hot weather, but also the best time of summer to treat winter illnesses. ?Dogtian patch? is the most commonly used magic weapon to prevent and treat diseases.

Every summer, when the dog days come, Chinese medicine hospitals, general hospitals and children's hospitals will carry out dog patch therapy. The number of patients who come to sign up increases sharply, and many parents even queue up in the hospital. Team.

1. The skin cannot directly absorb many drugs; even if it can be absorbed, the amount absorbed is very small, and it is impossible to reach the drug concentration required for treatment; 2. Dog patches can cure winter diseases in summer The statement is not credible. Medications can only work in the body's current state. In practice, there is no evidence that dog patches still exert their effectiveness in winter.

Whether it is the placebo effect or a traditional Chinese medicine marketing scam, there are two main controversies about Sanfu Tie: one is the theoretical basis, and the other is the clinical efficacy. In the field of traditional medicine, Sanfu Tie is a typical treatment method for summer and winter diseases; from the perspective of modern medicine, the concepts of "cold" and "yang" are too mysterious to find scientific basis and difficult to demonstrate.

The main evidence that the Sanfu patch is not effective is that the Sanfu patch is not included in treatment guidelines, coughing is sometimes a self-limiting process, the placebo effect, there are few studies on the Sanvolt patch, and many settings There are flaws.

Don’t think that “dog food ointment” is a scam of Chinese medicine, and don’t blindly regard it as a panacea rather than a daily treatment.
