What are the functions and effects of Qinghuo Zhimai tablets?
Qinghuo Zhimai tablets are mainly composed of multiple traditional Chinese herbs such as Gardenia (Zhi Zi) and Ophiopogon (Mai Dong), and typically possess various therapeutic effects including endocrine regulation, anti-inflammatory and analgesic actions, clearing heat while nourishing yin, purging fire to relieve dryness, and clearing heat to remove toxins. A detailed explanation is as follows:
1. Regulating Endocrine Function
Long-term internal heat may affect the endocrine system. Qinghuo Zhimai tablets, through their heat-clearing and fire-purging effects, can help restore endocrine balance. They also exert regulatory effects on a series of problems caused by endocrine disorders, such as skin issues and menstrual irregularities.
2. Anti-inflammatory and Analgesic Effects
Several herbs in Qinghuo Zhimai tablets contain anti-inflammatory active components, such as flavonoids and alkaloids, which can inhibit inflammatory responses and reduce tissue damage. Through their anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, these tablets help alleviate symptoms caused by inflammation, such as pain and swelling.
3. Nourishing Yin and Reducing Fire
Herbs like Ophiopogon (Mai Dong) have the effect of nourishing yin and clearing heat, which can replenish body fluids and reduce heat syndromes caused by yin deficiency and excessive fire. Qinghuo Zhimai tablets can nourish yin and clear internal fire, thereby relieving symptoms such as dry mouth, thirst, and sore throat caused by yin deficiency with fire hyperactivity.
4. Clearing Fire and Relieving Dryness
Herbs such as Andrographis (Chuan Xin Lian) and Gardenia (Zhi Zi) not only clear heat and remove toxins, but also have effects of clearing fire and promoting diuresis. These herbs help eliminate excessive internal heat and dampness. By clearing fire and relieving dryness, Qinghuo Zhimai tablets can alleviate symptoms such as dry mouth and constipation caused by excessive internal heat, assisting in regulating the internal environment.
5. Clearing Heat and Removing Toxins
Gardenia (Zhi Zi), one of the ingredients in Qinghuo Zhimai tablets, has a significant effect in clearing heat and removing toxins, effectively eliminating internal heat toxins. It is suitable for symptoms such as oral ulcers and sore throat caused by accumulated internal heat. Meanwhile, Ophiopogon (Mai Dong) nourishes yin and moistens dryness. Together, these ingredients provide comprehensive relief for discomfort caused by heat toxins.
During medication, it is recommended to avoid consuming spicy, greasy, or otherwise irritating foods, as they may interfere with the drug's effectiveness.
