Chapter 118 Chinese patent medicine

In fact, not just in April of this year.

As early as the middle of three years ago, an authoritative medical journal under the top academic journal "Science" published a paper on the "decisive association" between 'aristolochic acid' and the occurrence of liver cancer, and the world launched a heated discussion on 'aristolochic acid'.

When this carcinogen entered the eyes of the world, the public launched an investigation and suddenly discovered it.

In 03, the WHO has listed this substance as a class I carcinogen, and since 04, the Hong Kong Island Health Organization has strictly banned the import of aristolochic acid into Hong Kong, and it has been listed as a prohibited drug.

However, it is against this backdrop that it is.

Many Chinese patent medicines in China still contain aristolochic acid......

As a result, those who have suffered greatly have been gradually revealed, and have also been used by those with good intentions to occupy the moral high ground and criticize Chinese medicine.

But in reality?

Most of the 'orthodox Chinese medicine families', including the Zhou family, are well aware of the harm of aristolochic acid to the human body. Thousands of years ago, medicinal songs have long been about the damage of various herbs.

There is a well-known saying that medicine is three parts poison.

However, for some special cases, TCM is still selected as appropriate......

Because of a very simple logic, both Chinese and Western medicines will inevitably have an impact and harm to the human body.

Which part of the sore foot was caught by the Chinese medicine doctor?

The side effects are not clear!

Compared with the standardization of Western medicine, under the premise that the side effects are not clear, it will never be allowed to be marketed, or the dosage of harmful substances will be reduced, and the side effects will be clearly marked in the instructions, and set as 'prescription drugs', which need to be used under the guidance of a doctor.

However, it is undeniable that many of these traditional Chinese medicines, which are toxic or have unclear side effects, can indeed restrain the disease.

Say something that would be mistaken for a change of concept.

The side effects of traditional Chinese medicine are not yet clear, just like in rheumatism, rheumatoid and other diseases that Western medicine is helpless for, but the treatment of traditional Chinese medicine often has significant efficacy, and for Western medicine, the effective treatment method of this treatment is also not clear, and they cannot study the results.

You're going to say a change of concept......

So good, Western medicine directly puts an end to toxic drugs, but it cannot cure some special diseases, but Chinese medicine uses strong drugs to fight poison in many cases.

Yes, this practice has indeed caused an impact on the human body in a certain aspect, but it has saved the serious diseases that are occurring, and greatly restored the health and quality of life of the human body.

In fact, this is the meaning of treatment, which is greater than the adverse effects, and between the pros and cons, there are different opinions.

Yes, the mysteries of Chinese medicine are often difficult to explain, because Chinese medicine already contains principles such as 'metaphysics' and 'philosophy'.

And in the Western world there is a saying that is very interesting......

When the study of materialism comes to an end, many things that cannot be explained can only become idealism.

Many top scientists were considered insane in their later years, precisely because they began to study idealism.

So now let's take a correct attitude towards Chinese medicine......

In fact, as early as thousands of years ago, Chinese medicine has made a good balance between materialism and idealism.

Of course, there is no intention of praising Chinese medicine now, just talking about things.

Straight to the point.

The side effects of traditional Chinese medicine are inevitable, and serious Chinese medicine will find ways to eliminate the occurrence of side effects, either by neutralizing the medicinal properties, or by using drugs according to the patient's situation, or not using drugs.

On the contrary, in recent years, there have been cases of 'death and illness caused by Chinese patent medicines'.

Is proprietary Chinese medicine containing undesirable ingredients the original sin?

Of course not!

If you think about it, when you have a cold and fever, you don't go to a Chinese medicine doctor, but choose a Western medicine clinic or hospital.

Even in tertiary hospitals, most of the prescriptions of Western medicine doctors are-

Triple X cold spirit, cephalosporin, amoxicillin.

Or, compound antiviral particles, gentian laxative liver pills.

The former, Chinese patent medicine + Western medicine antibiotics.

The latter, Chinese patent medicine + Chinese patent medicine.

Many people don't know why proprietary Chinese medicine is called proprietary Chinese medicine because it contains Western medicine ingredients.

In addition to aristolochic acid, there is also a substance called acetaminophen that causes a burden on the kidneys.

Now that we know the ingredients of the drug, we analyze two prescriptions –

In the former, acetaminophen + acetaminophen + dose causes a burden on the kidneys (renal failure, uremia).

The latter, acetaminophen + dirty burden, carcinogenic potential.

Some of the words stop there.

And as far as the results are concerned, everything is clear.

The people who use the most proprietary Chinese medicines are not Chinese medicine, but Western medicine.

Real Chinese medicine, or Western medicine that understands the truth, will clearly tell that drugs with the same effect do not need to be superimposed, choose to eat the same, do not eat more, it is a medicine with three poisons, whether it is Chinese patent medicine or Western medicine.

Therefore, when selling your own medicines in pharmacies, do not listen to recommendations, including when the doctor prescribes them, and be mindful.

If there is a drug that increases the burden on the kidneys, do not take it in combination.

The choice of Chinese patent medicine is the same as that of Western medicine.

Chinese patent medicine has a slow effect, but the relative burden is small, while Western medicine has a fast effect and a large burden, but it is by no means to the extent of pathogenicity.

But if the two are stacked......

People who are not physically strong will have a probability of 'individual cases', kidney failure, uremia.

Straight to the point.

Herbalists are low-grade versions of traditional Chinese medicine, and many herbalists do not understand the side effects of herbs and have no way to neutralize them.

As Jira said, the use of anti-inflammatory herbs has saved an amputee patient from having a high fever that does not go away, and this method is feasible, but it is also necessary to consider the patient's condition.

Adults with strong immunity can use this anti-inflammatory herb, and the side effects of the herb are actually isolated cases.

There are so many Chinese patent medicines in Huaguo that have side effects, why did they pass the market? Because it is really a very rare case, it is related to the patient's physical condition, we have taken so many medicines since we were young, and we are still not living well?

Can the toxicity of the drug be stronger than that of gutter oil and triple X milk powder?

In the case of Jeral, she was mildly malnourished and had lost too much blood......

The patient's physical burden is already very large, and if the drug is used blindly, it will only cause adverse effects, and the adverse effects at this time are greater than the therapeutic significance.

"Fetch water, just use the medicine......"

Physical cooling has some effect.

When Jila returned, Zhou Zhou also took the opportunity to explain the side effects of herbal medicine to the herbalists again.

"Traditional Chinese medicine is an advanced version of herbal medicine, why is it that we are recognized in China, but not in Africa? Because your research depth is not enough, in fact, as long as you can understand this principle, the condition of herbal medicine can be improved, and the treatment effect on patients will be better. ”

The truth is very simple, and Monday will make sense to them at a glance.

In fact, the current medical situation in Africa is very similar to that in China in the early decades.

Now back in the county, many small clinics have TCM consultations, and they are very famous in the local area, they not only prescribe Western medicine, but also prescribe Chinese medicine.

However, most of the practitioners are halfway monks, studying under the former local doctors, and when the medical reform in China is carried out and the rapid development is carried out, they have become a shortcut.

Doctors trained from scratch take a lot of time and take a long time, and such local doctors can get started faster if they have relative medical knowledge and understanding of traditional Chinese medicine.

Lao Mo was looking for various places in China back then, and he knew the most about the medical situation in China, and now he wants to do the same thing.

Herbalist has a foundation, as long as it is trained, it can greatly improve the local medical situation, this is a shortcut, even if the low-end of herbalist will cause adverse reactions, but still that sentence, the effective meaning is greater than the adverse reactions.

The most down-to-earth herbalist may be the most intuitive solution to save the local medical situation.
