Huangqi Granules have significant therapeutic effects, primarily including the following aspects:
1. **Tonifying Qi and Strengthening the Defensive System**: Huangqi Granules effectively replenish Qi and enhance the body's resistance, showing remarkable efficacy in treating symptoms caused by Qi deficiency, such as fatigue, palpitations, and shortness of breath.
2. **Diuretic Effect**: Huangqi Granules possess a moderate diuretic effect, increasing urine output and chloride excretion, thereby improving conditions such as chronic nephritis and oliguria.
3. **Promoting Detoxification, Discharging Pus, and Tissue Regeneration**: The granules also facilitate healing in cases of abscesses that are difficult to rupture and wounds with delayed healing.
4. **Improving Immune Function**: Huangqi Granules significantly enhance immune function, act similarly to antioxidant enzymes, and serve as an effective bidirectional immune regulator.
5. **Cardiotonic Effect**: The saponins in Huangqi exert a cardiotonic effect through the Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase pathway, offering certain therapeutic benefits for heart failure.
