Dr. Yang Ziqi
Yangxue Qingnao Granules have a certain auxiliary effect in treating cerebral arteriosclerosis. This medication helps alleviate symptoms of cerebral arteriosclerosis by improving cerebral blood circulation and increasing blood flow to the brain, thereby providing symptomatic relief for patients. Its main ingredients include Angelica sinensis (Danggui), Chuanxiong (Ligusticum chuanxiong), and White Peony Root (Baishao), which function to promote blood circulation, unblock meridians, nourish the blood, and subdue hyperactive liver yang. It is suitable for headaches and dizziness caused by blood deficiency with hyperactive liver yang. However, Yangxue Qingnao Granules cannot completely cure cerebral arteriosclerosis, and patients should still undergo comprehensive treatment in combination with other therapeutic approaches. Additionally, this medication should be taken according to medical instructions, with attention to medication safety and precautions.
