Introduction
Lianqiao Baidu Tablets have a therapeutic effect on pharyngitis of the heat-toxin type. When pharyngitis presents with symptoms of excessive heat-toxin accumulation, such as redness, swelling, and pain in the throat, difficulty swallowing, dryness and bitterness in the mouth, accompanied by yellow phlegm or fever, ingredients in Lianqiao Baidu Tablets, such as Lianqiao (Forsythia suspensa) and Jin Yin Hua (Honeysuckle), can clear heat toxins, relieve throat discomfort, reduce swelling, effectively alleviate inflammation, and improve associated symptoms.

Generally, Lianqiao Baidu Tablets are effective for treating pharyngitis caused by excessive internal heat (heat-toxin type), but are not suitable for pharyngitis caused by wind-cold invasion or yin deficiency. If uncertain, it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional beforehand. Detailed explanation is as follows:

When pharyngitis presents with symptoms of excessive heat toxicity, such as redness and swelling of the throat accompanied by pain, difficulty swallowing, dryness and bitterness in the mouth, yellow phlegm, or fever, ingredients in Lianqiao Baidu Tablets such as Lianqiao (Forsythia suspensa) and Jin Yin Hua (Honeysuckle) can help clear heat, detoxify the body, relieve throat discomfort, and effectively reduce inflammation and alleviate symptoms.

If the pharyngitis is caused by wind-cold invasion, presenting as slight throat pain, itching, clear nasal discharge, or cold sensitivity; or if it is caused by yin deficiency with internal heat, presenting as dry throat pain, hoarseness, and worsening symptoms at night without obvious redness or swelling, then Lianqiao Baidu Tablets are not suitable. Its cold-natured ingredients may aggravate wind-cold symptoms or further damage body fluids (yin), prolonging the illness.

Before taking Lianqiao Baidu Tablets, it is important to determine the type of pharyngitis to avoid inappropriate or blind use of medication. Patients with deficiency-cold syndrome of the spleen and stomach should use it cautiously. Spicy, raw, cold, and greasy foods should be avoided during treatment. If symptoms do not improve within three days of medication or worsen, medical advice should be sought promptly to adjust the treatment plan and prevent delays in recovery.
