Selection method of gypsum

Through the continuous summary of clinical experience, the formula and manufacturing technology of plaster are constantly improved, the curative effect of plaster is also significantly improved, and the application scope is wider. In particular, there has been reform and innovation in dosage forms, and a new generation of plaster dosage forms with different dosage forms have appeared in the market. Nowadays, in addition to pharmacies in hospitals (especially Chinese medicine hospitals), plasters can be seen in pharmacies, clinics and even stalls.

The scientific way to choose plaster is to choose certificate, not according to price or brand. Because each plaster has its unique efficacy and indications, no plaster can cure all diseases. The most reliable method is to choose according to indications under the guidance of doctors or pharmacists.

For patients with arthralgia (rheumatalgia), rigidity, muscle numbness, fracture, and tendon injury (sprain and contusion), Taiyishan Black Ointment, Wanying Ointment, Xiaoyan Zhitong Ointment, Huoxue Ointment, Rubber Ointment and Boning Ointment with the functions of expelling wind and removing dampness, activating qi and promoting blood circulation, and dredging menstruation and relieving pain can be selected.

For patients with carbuncle swelling, swelling and pain, suppuration or persistent suppuration caused by heat toxin stagnation, as well as furuncle and furuncle patients, Taiyi ointment, ointment, fleece-flower root ointment, Yang ointment, ointment and Huanglian ointment with the functions of relieving swelling and pain, removing necrotic tissue and promoting granulation can be selected.

If you feel low back pain and joint pain caused by cold, you can use dog skin ointment or Zhuifeng ointment to dispel cold and wind, relax muscles and tendons, promote blood circulation and relieve pain.

Jiuxin Plaster is an externally applied plaster made of musk, borneol, safflower, frankincense, myrrh and nitroglycerin. Once the symptoms of angina pectoris appear, 1 tablet can be applied to the precordial area immediately, and angina pectoris can be relieved in 5 ~ 6 minutes. If you apply/kloc-0 once a day, you can prevent angina pectoris.

Identification of the Quality of Plaster According to the standard for judging the quality of Chinese medicine plaster in China Pharmacopoeia (1995 edition), qualified plaster should meet the following requirements: both old and tender skins are suitable, and they have proper viscosity and will not move when attached to the skin; The appearance is oily and delicate, and it is not irritating to the skin; The thickness and weight of the same plaster should be basically the same; Stored at room temperature, it will not deteriorate within two years and will not lose its viscosity.

The above is only known after use. For ordinary patients, when buying plasters, it is important to know that the packaging of qualified plasters should indicate the manufacturer, drug quasi-brand name, production date and shelf life (generally 2 years), and the drug instructions should be detailed and clear.

Identifying the quasi-trade name of traditional Chinese medicine plaster belongs to a dosage form of traditional Chinese medicine. Legally sold plasters should have the drug quasi-brand number issued by the US Food and Drug Administration. According to the relevant provisions of the Detailed Rules for the Specification of Drug Instructions issued by the US Food and Drug Administration, the main components should be indicated in the format of Chinese medicine instructions. Drug instructions should also indicate: indications, usage and dosage, storage, adverse reactions, contraindications (some marked as contraindications), precautions, etc.

The quality requirements of plastering are as follows

1. Old and tender should be appropriate, stick to the skin with appropriate viscosity, and the position should be fixed. 2. The appearance should be oily and delicate, without irritation to the skin. 3. The amount of the same plaster should be consistent, and the weight difference limit should not exceed 5% (referring to the weight of pure plaster except the base material). 4. Stored at room temperature, it will not deteriorate within two years and will not lose its viscosity.

Carefully buy the "ancestral plaster" of the stall.

The "ancestral plaster" on the stall can't be said to be fake, but the good and the bad are mixed, and I'm afraid there are many people who cheat. Drug sellers boast that plasters are very effective and often unreliable. Because of the high mobility of drug dealers, being cheated can only admit that you are unlucky. Patients should still go to regular hospitals or pharmacies to buy plasters with quasi-drug names, or they can use plasters made by some regular hospitals.

Many patients choose their own plaster and stick it on the painful place without consulting a doctor or reading the instructions. However, this is blind, not necessarily effective, and may be harmful to health. It should be noted that the plaster sticking method is also particular.

The plaster sticking method pays attention to finding the right place to stick the medicine. Before sticking plaster, you should choose a place to stick medicine, such as migraine sticking to the temple; Suitable for traumatic injuries and various skin diseases; Chronic bronchitis with points such as Shu Fei and Tiantu; Stomach pain is attached to spleen Shu, stomach Shu or epiglottis.

Some plasters must be attached to specific parts of the body surface, such as navel warming ointment for children with abdominal pain due to cold accumulation, and must be attached to the navel.

Before cleaning the plastering place, wash the affected area with a towel dipped in warm water, dry it and then paste it; Red, swollen and painful parts should be disinfected with medical alcohol before sticking.

Cold compress should be applied to joint sprain first, and plaster can't be applied immediately. Because the plaster used for sprain has the function of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, if it is applied immediately after injury, it will not only fail to reduce swelling and relieve pain, but will aggravate local soft tissue congestion and swelling and pain.

The correct way is to wash or ice the affected area with cold water without damaging the skin. Waiting for 24 hours before applying hot compress or plaster can not only relieve pain and swelling, but also shorten the course of disease.

Hot compress can stick the plaster firmly. In winter, the climate is cold, and the adhesive plaster is often difficult to stick. At this time, after sticking the plaster, you can apply it with a hot water bag or blow it with a hair dryer for two or three minutes, so that it can be stuck firmly and improve the therapeutic effect.

Treatment of minor discomfort due to adverse reactions Most people have no obvious discomfort after sticking plaster, and some people will feel slight fever and itching locally, which is a normal reaction and can be ignored.

Some people get blisters after sticking plaster. If the blisters are not big and difficult to wear out, stop using the plaster and stick it after the blisters subside. If the blister is large and easy to puncture, it can be cauterized with a sterilized syringe or a common sewing needle, then the blister is picked out, the liquid in the blister is squeezed out, and then the gentian violet liquid is disinfected or smeared with alcohol. If blisters appear repeatedly, they should be regarded as allergic reactions.

After allergic plastering, papules, blisters and itching appear on local skin, indicating allergic to plasters.

Remove the plaster immediately. If the allergic reaction is mild, wash the plaster with warm water.

If there is a rash or blister on the plaster, you should immediately remove the plaster, disinfect the affected area with salt water or Rivanol (ethacridine lactate, also known as Rivanol), and then wrap it with gauze.

If the blister is large, you should go to the hospital to pump out the liquid in the blister with a sterile needle, and then handle it accordingly.
