Let me talk about the common authentic Chinese medicine.

First, the definition of Chinese medicine

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) refers to substances that are used to prevent, treat and diagnose diseases under the guidance of TCM theory and have the functions of rehabilitation and health care. Traditional Chinese medicine mainly comes from natural medicines and their processed products, including plant medicines, animal medicines, mineral medicines and some chemical and biological products. Because most Chinese medicines are plant medicines, there is a saying that "all medicines are based on grass".

Second, authentic Chinese medicine.

The distribution and production of natural medicinal materials can not be separated from certain natural conditions. The production of various medicinal materials, regardless of variety, yield and quality, has certain regional characteristics. Therefore, since ancient times, physicians have attached great importance to authentic medicinal materials. The so-called authentic medicinal materials, also known as authentic medicinal materials, are special terms for high-quality pure medicinal materials, which refer to medicinal materials with a long history, suitable origin, excellent varieties, rich output, exquisite processing, outstanding curative effect and regional characteristics.

Such as Angelica sinensis in Gansu, Lycium barbarum in Ningxia, Rhubarb in Qinghai, Astragalus membranaceus in Inner Mongolia, Ginseng in Northeast China, Codonopsis pilosula in Shanxi, Rehmannia glutinosa in Henan, and the collection of traditional Chinese medicine.

The harvesting time and method of traditional Chinese medicine are closely related to ensuring the quality of medicinal materials. Because the effective components and harmful components in the medicinal parts of animals and plants are different at different stages of their growth and development, the curative effect and toxic and side effects of drugs are often very different, so the collection of medicinal materials must be carried out at the right time.

Fourth, the processing of traditional Chinese medicine

The process of processing drugs according to the needs of medical treatment, preparation and preparation before they are applied or made into various dosage forms. Commonly used processing methods include pickling, water processing, fire processing, water-fire processing and so on. The purpose of processing is to purify medicinal materials, ensure quality, sort drugs and distinguish grades; Cut into pieces for easy preparation; Dry medicinal materials are beneficial to storage; The taste and smell are correct, and it is convenient to take; Reduce toxic and side effects and ensure medication safety; Enhance drug function and improve clinical efficacy; Change the drug performance and expand the application scope. Introducing drugs into meridians is convenient for directional medication.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) dosage and usage of traditional Chinese medicine

1, dosage of traditional Chinese medicine

The dosage of traditional Chinese medicine refers to the dosage in clinical application. It mainly indicates the daily dosage of each medicine for adults. The vast majority of traditional Chinese medicines come from crude drugs, and the safe dosage range is wide, and the dosage is not as strict as that of chemicals, but whether the dosage is appropriate is also one of the important factors that directly affect the curative effect and clinical effect. The dose is too small to have a therapeutic effect and delay the illness; If the dosage is too large, it will hurt healthy qi, and it will also cause adverse consequences or unnecessary waste.

Step 2 use

Mainly refers to the methods of taking decoction and different dosage forms.

(1) decocting method decoction is one of the most commonly used dosage forms of traditional Chinese medicine. The preparation of decoction has certain requirements for frying utensils, water, fire and cooking methods. Casseroles and jars are the best decocting instruments, followed by enamel pots, and copper iron pots should not be used to avoid chemical changes and affect the curative effect. There are two kinds of decoction: slow fire and fierce fire. The duration and time of decoction depend on the nature of potential substances. Some drugs have special decocting methods because of their different textures, which are indicated in the prescriptions, such as decocting first and then decocting, decocting in package, dissolving, soaking, taking water, decocting in soup instead of water, etc.

(2) Method of medication

Administration time: common decoction is decocted twice daily 1 dose, with an interval of 4? About six hours. The method of taking medicine and decocting is generally warm. Pills with smaller particles can be taken directly with warm water; Honey pills are big enough to be swallowed in small pieces; If the water pill is hard, it can be dissolved in boiling water and taken. Powder, powder can be mixed with honey, or swallowed in human capsules to avoid irritation to the throat if swallowed directly. The ointment should be taken with boiling water to avoid swallowing directly in the mouth, so as not to stick to the throat and cause vomiting. Granules should be taken with boiling water; Syrup can be swallowed directly. In addition, there is nasal administration.

Because there is a prescription for treating rhinitis and girding the waist at home, I really know several kinds of Chinese medicines, such as open throat sword, Cirsium japonicum, Smilax glabra, honeysuckle and so on. But that smelly medicine was planted by our own seeds collected from the mountains. We only know what the dialect says, but we don't know what the pen name of the medicine is, and we have also found an authoritative organization to identify it. The result is still unknown, as shown in Figure 2.

Is this a test of the name of medicinal materials or knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine? In our countryside, we crawl on the land, swim in the water, fly in the sky, animals and plants grow underground and fly in the sky! Trees and fruits, flowers and plants, wild vegetables ... are all medicinal materials, such as poultry; Dandelion, Artemisia scoparia (Artemisia annua) and Acorus calamus (leaves and roots); Toona sinensis (stems, leaves, stems and roots) and mulberry trees (mulberry trees, mulberry leaves, branches and roots); Turtle (black shell, whole turtle, ...) ... are all medicinal materials, all natural! Every year they come to buy medicinal materials!
