The effects of Longjiao San mainly include the following:
1. Cough relief and phlegm reduction: Ingredients such as Platycodon root and Polygala root in Longjiao San help relieve coughing and expel phlegm by promoting lung function and soothing the throat. It is suitable for alleviating and treating symptoms such as cough and phlegm production.
2. Calming the mind and improving cognitive function: The Polygala root also has effects of calming the mind and enhancing mental clarity, which may help improve symptoms such as palpitations and insomnia. However, it should be noted that this is an adjunctive treatment, and patients with severe conditions should seek medical attention.
3. Clearing heat and detoxifying: Ingredients such as licorice in Longjiao San have heat-clearing and detoxifying properties, which can help alleviate symptoms such as sore throat and dry throat.
4. Anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects: Longjiao San also possesses anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties, making it suitable for adjunctive treatment of inflammatory conditions such as acute pharyngitis and acute laryngitis.
It is recommended to use this product under the guidance of a physician to avoid self-medication or arbitrary adjustment of dosage.
