Dr. Zhang Xiuhong

For spleen and stomach deficiency-cold, Lizhong Pills have the effects of warming the middle burner, dispelling cold, and strengthening the stomach, and are suitable for symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, chest fullness, and abdominal pain caused by spleen and stomach deficiency-cold. Xiao Jianzhong Mixture can warm the middle burner, tonify deficiency, relieve urgency, and alleviate pain. Fuzi Lizhong Pills have the function of warming the middle burner and invigorating the spleen, and are particularly effective for symptoms of spleen and stomach deficiency-cold such as cold pain in the epigastric region and cold hands and feet. Xiangsha Yangwei Pills can warm the stomach and regulate its function, and are used for conditions involving spleen and stomach deficiency-cold with qi stagnation, such as poor appetite, epigastric fullness or distension, and acid regurgitation.

However, the use of Chinese patent medicines should be guided by a physician, with selection based on specific symptoms and individual constitution. If symptoms worsen or persist, medical attention should be sought promptly.
