What Chinese patent medicine should be taken for spontaneous sweating?

Excessive sweating can usually be treated with traditional Chinese patent medicines such as Liuwei Dihuang Pills, Fuqi Zhihan Granules, and Longdan Xiegan Pills. The details are as follows:

1. Liuwei Dihuang Pills

Liuwei Dihuang Pills are a traditional Chinese medicine used to nourish yin and tonify the kidneys. They are suitable for symptoms of excessive sweating caused by liver and kidney deficiency, accompanied by dizziness, blurred vision, soreness and weakness in the lower back and knees.

2. Fuqi Zhihan Granules

Fuqi Zhihan Granules consist of ingredients including stir-fried Atractylodes, Codonopsis, Astragalus, calcined oyster shell, Ephedra root, and steamed Schisandra. They are primarily used to treat symptoms due to qi deficiency with poor containment, such as excessive sweating, fatigue, and general weakness.

3. Longdan Xiegan Pills

Longdan Xiegan Pills have effects of clearing heat from the liver and gallbladder and eliminating damp-heat. They can be used to treat conditions caused by damp-heat in the liver and gallbladder, such as chest and rib pain, bitter taste in the mouth, excessive sweating, headache, red eyes, tinnitus, deafness, painful or difficult urination, and yellow vaginal discharge.

In addition to the above medications, others such as Yupingfeng Granules and Zhibai Dihuang Pills may also be used. Medications should be taken under the guidance of a physician; self-medication without supervision is not recommended to avoid adverse reactions. During treatment, patients should closely monitor bodily changes and promptly inform their doctor of any discomfort, so that the treatment plan can be adjusted accordingly.
