Wu Jutong's Treatise on Febrile Diseases in Qing Dynasty invented a classic prescription: Sangju Decoction, which was specially designed for hot cough. Sangjuyin contains medicines such as mulberry leaves, chrysanthemum, platycodon grandiflorum, almond, forsythia, reed rhizome, licorice and mint, and has the effects of dispelling wind and clearing heat, dispersing lung qi and relieving cough, among which mulberry leaves, chrysanthemum and mint can dispel wind and clear heat, almond, platycodon grandiflorum and licorice can disperse lung qi, resolve phlegm and relieve cough, and reed rhizome and forsythia can clear heat and produce fluid. For patients with severe heat cough, Flos Lonicerae, Bulbus Fritillariae Thunbergii and leaves can be added. Combined with the whole prescription, it has a unique curative effect on heat cough, and these drugs can be decocted and taken.

In addition to decocting traditional Chinese medicine, people who are inconvenient to decoct traditional Chinese medicine or have no time to decoct traditional Chinese medicine can take Chinese patent medicine. The prescription Sangju Yin mentioned above is generally made into Chinese patent medicines in modern times: Sangju pills, Sangju tablets, Sangju granules and so on. , which can be purchased at the drugstore. Of course, you can also eat western medicine. From the perspective of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine, hot cough mostly belongs to bacterial infection. If the hot cough is severe and the sputum is yellow and thick, you can take antibacterial drugs such as amoxicillin capsules and levofloxacin tablets. In addition, you can also take drugs for relieving cough and resolving phlegm, such as ambroxol tablets and acetylcysteine capsules.

In addition to taking medicine, you can also eat more cough-relieving fruits, such as Sydney, which have the effects of treating wind and heat, moistening the lungs, cooling the heart, resolving phlegm, reducing fire and detoxifying, and have a good effect on hot cough.
