What is the Chinese patent medicine that we often talk about?

Chinese patent medicine, which people often say in life, refers to ready-made drugs made from Chinese herbal medicines according to certain therapeutic principles, such as various pills, powders, granules and so on. It has the advantages of ready use, emergency, convenient storage, easy carrying, no need of decoction process, and elimination of peculiar smell and bad stimulation when taking traditional Chinese medicine decoction. The disadvantage is that the composition and dosage ratio of the drug remain unchanged and cannot be flexible. In addition, in recent years, toxic reactions and allergic reactions caused by Chinese patent medicines have also been reported. For example, Zhusha Anshen Pill can cause stomatitis and proteinuria, and in severe cases, it can cause drug-induced enteritis. Long-term use of black tin will lead to serious lead poisoning; Lingqiao Jiedu Pill or Yinqiao Jiedu Pill can cause severe anaphylactic shock. Although these reactions are rare, they are all serious once they occur. Therefore, those who are poisoned or have allergic reactions due to taking Chinese patent medicines must remember that they should not take the same medicine in the future.
