Which is better, Rhinitis Tablets or Tongqiao Rhinitis Tablets?
Nasal inflammation tablets and Tongqiao nasal inflammation tablets are generally both effective, with no absolute superiority or inferiority. The key lies in using the appropriate medication according to the specific condition. The former focuses on clearing heat and detoxifying, as well as promoting lung function and unblocking nasal passages, while the latter specializes in dispersing wind, strengthening the body's surface defenses, and improving lung function to unblock nasal passages. Selection should be based on the specific type of rhinitis and under medical guidance. If symptoms do not improve or worsen after one week of medication, prompt medical consultation is recommended.

Nasal inflammation tablets primarily contain ingredients such as Xanthium fruit (Cang'ersi), Magnolia flower (Xinyi), and Siler root (Fangfeng). They are suitable for acute or chronic rhinitis caused by wind-heat affecting the lungs and deficient exterior defense. These tablets help relieve symptoms like nasal congestion, yellow nasal discharge, and headaches. With a cooling medicinal property, they are more suitable for patients whose rhinitis presents clear signs of heat syndrome.
Tongqiao nasal inflammation tablets enhance the exterior-strengthening effect compared to standard nasal inflammation tablets and include ingredients such as Astragalus root (Huangqi) and Atractylodes rhizome (Baizhu). In addition to unblocking nasal passages, they also tonify qi and strengthen the body’s defenses. They are suitable for individuals who catch colds easily due to physical weakness or suffer from recurrent episodes of rhinitis, helping to alleviate fluctuating nasal congestion that worsens upon exposure to wind. These tablets are better suited for patients with weak constitutions.
In daily life, avoid contact with allergens such as pollen and dust mites, maintain indoor ventilation and dryness, and use saline solution to rinse the nasal cavity for mucosal cleansing. During treatment, maintain a light diet and avoid spicy foods. Follow the dosage instructions strictly and do not adjust the duration or dose of treatment on your own, to effectively support symptom relief.
