Fuzi Lizhong Pill is from Taiping Huimin Hejiju Recipe, and its prescription includes Fuzi, Ginseng (or Codonopsis pilosula), Zingiberis Rhizoma, Atractylodis Macrocephalae and Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata. It is a medicine for warming yang and dispelling cold, benefiting qi and strengthening spleen.
Aconitum carmichaeli is one of the most important drugs in traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, and it belongs to the first medicine for warming the interior. Many people say that aconite is poisonous. Indeed, aconite is an attached root on the tuber of Aconitum, so it is called "Aconitum". The mother root of aconite is traditional Chinese medicine aconite. Both aconite and aconite contain aconitine, which is toxic to peripheral nerves and circulatory system. Therefore, general Chinese medicine practitioners should be more cautious when using aconite. First, the dosage, but generally, if you take decoction, you have to boil it for more than 1 hour, and then add other drugs, while Chinese patent medicines generally use cooked aconite.
Fuzi is pungent, sweet and hot. Used properly, it has the function of restoring yang to save adverse reactions. It belongs to the medicine of sexual heat and pure yang, which can not only tonify spleen yang deficiency, but also tonify kidney yang deficiency, heart yang deficiency and aconite root.
Ginseng in the prescription has been the "first medicine for tonifying deficiency" since ancient times, and people with deficiency of qi and blood can be supplemented with ginseng. In Fuzi Lizhong Pill, the main effects of ginseng are invigorating qi, strengthening spleen, asthenia due to spleen deficiency, eating less, and loose stool. Ginseng has a nourishing effect. After consulting some literatures, my personal understanding of "ginseng" in this recipe should also be "codonopsis pilosula", which has similar efficacy to ginseng, and the efficacy of invigorating spleen and stomach is more specialized.
Dried ginger is also an important drug to dispel cold and relieve exterior syndrome blindly. Dry ginger is pungent and hot, and enters spleen, stomach, kidney, heart and lung meridians. It has the effects of warming middle warmer, dispelling cold, restoring yang and dredging collaterals, and has good curative effect on abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhea. The combination of dried ginger and aconite is a common combination in traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions. In the treatment of yang deficiency, the combination of these two drugs is quite common. For example, "Sini Decoction" and "Fu Jiang Decoction" are both classic prescriptions, which have two drug functions. There is a saying in Chinese medicine that "aconite can walk but not keep, and dried ginger can walk and keep". The combination of aconite and dried ginger can enhance the power of restoring yang and make the effect lasting, which can be advocated.
According to the new edition of Materia Medica, Atractylodes macrocephala is sweet and pungent, the temperature can rise or fall, the yang is yin, and it is non-toxic. Atractylodes macrocephala is a good medicine for invigorating spleen and eliminating dampness. Its main function is to invigorate qi and spleen and promote digestion. Four medicine songs say that Atractylodes macrocephala: Atractylodes macrocephala is sweet, bitter, warm and non-toxic, which can strengthen exterior, stop sweating and eliminate valley, and treat phlegm-dampness fetal movement and diarrhea due to spleen deficiency.
Licorice is also a traditional Chinese medicine with a long history. It is not only used for a long time in the history of traditional medicine in China, but also used by westerners. 1820, licorice was listed in the United States Pharmacopoeia. Radix Glycyrrhizae used in Fuzi Lizhong Pill is roasted Radix Glycyrrhizae, which has the main functions of invigorating the spleen and stomach, benefiting qi and restoring pulse, and is effective for spleen and stomach weakness and fatigue. However, modern research has found that the prescriptions of aconite, dried ginger and licorice have a certain synergistic effect, which can not only tonify spleen yang, but also strengthen the heart.
As can be seen from the above introduction, Fuzi Lizhong Pill has strong medicinal properties, belongs to the medicine of warming and dispelling cold, and is a very symptomatic medicine for tonifying spleen and kidney yang deficiency. If you are a friend with serious symptoms of spleen and kidney yang deficiency, you often have cold pain in the stomach, tepid hands and feet, loss of appetite, indigestion, diarrhea and other symptoms. You can take Fuzi Lizhong Pill to tonify spleen and kidney yang deficiency, which will generally have a good curative effect.
But is it really so easy for modern people to "yang deficiency"? Really not necessarily. It usually causes "yang deficiency", which is either congenital deficiency, chronic illness or physical aging to a certain extent. Now people's living conditions are very good, and eating big fish and meat is usually not short of nutrition. For young and middle-aged people, the probability of "yang deficiency" is really small. Therefore, before applying this medicine, in addition to comparing the above symptoms, it is best to make a diagnosis first to see if there is really a problem of "spleen and kidney yang deficiency", and it is a serious problem. In this case, it will be effective to use this medicine again. Some friends have symptoms of yang deficiency, but they still hide stomach fire. When they take this medicine, they will not make up for yang deficiency, but will make their stomachs angry and feel even worse. This is that drug treatment is not symptomatic.
In addition, friends with yin deficiency and internal heat, friends with high blood pressure, especially friends with poor blood pressure control and friends with heart disease are not suitable for taking Fuzi Lizhong Pills, so special attention should be paid. If you have symptoms such as high blood pressure, headache and palpitation during taking the medicine, you should also stop taking the medicine in time. Although the toxicity of aconite is reduced, it is not completely non-toxic. Therefore, it is generally not recommended to take this drug for a long time. How long will it take? It is recommended to take it for 2 weeks. If it is effective but not effective enough, you can take Lizhong Pill for two weeks.
