Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine patches, and in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine patch for regulating phlegm-damp constitution and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) constitutional theory, phlegm-dampness is a relatively common, biased constitution. With changes in modern lifestyles, such as increased intake of high-calorie foods and decreased physical activity, the prevalence of people with phlegm-dampness is on the rise. People with phlegm-dampness experience accumulation of phlegm and dampness in the body, often manifesting as obesity, a distended and flabby abdomen, oily facial skin, excessive sweating, chest tightness, excessive phlegm, and a sticky or sweet taste in the mouth. Due to metabolic disorders, these individuals are susceptible to a variety of illnesses, posing a significant health threat.

[0003] Currently, there are various treatments for phlegm-dampness constitution and related diseases, but all have certain limitations. In terms of medication, while oral Chinese herbal decoctions can regulate the body overall, they have many inconveniences. The decoction process is cumbersome and requires a lot of time and energy, making it difficult for modern people with a fast pace of life to stick to it. Moreover, the decoction tastes bitter, and many patients, especially children and the elderly, have poor compliance. While Chinese patent medicines are convenient to take, their ingredients are fixed, making it difficult to flexibly adjust the formula according to individual differences. They are not sufficiently targeted for different symptoms and constitutions, and some patients may not see good results after taking them. At the same time, some drugs may also cause adverse reactions such as gastrointestinal irritation and liver and kidney damage.

[0004] Among non-drug therapies, traditional methods like acupuncture and massage can play a role in conditioning, but they require specialized personnel, are location- and time-sensitive, and require frequent visits to medical facilities, which is costly and time-consuming. Methods like cupping and scraping primarily focus on dredging meridians and removing dampness and toxins, but their overall effectiveness is limited for the complex conditions caused by phlegm-damp constitutions.

[0005] Most topical products currently on the market treat single symptoms or diseases, such as weight loss patches and blood pressure patches. There are relatively few products specifically designed to comprehensively address phlegm-dampness constitutions. These products often lack precise formulations and fail to comprehensively address the underlying issues of phlegm-dampness constitutions. Furthermore, deficiencies in manufacturing processes and material selection can lead to slow drug release and poor absorption. Some products may also cause skin allergies and other issues.

[0006] In summary, the development of a safe, effective, and convenient product that can precisely regulate phlegm-dampness constitutions, while also having a positive therapeutic effect on a variety of related conditions such as obesity, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension, is urgently needed. The present invention's Chinese herbal patch for regulating phlegm-dampness constitutions was developed precisely against this backdrop, aiming to provide an innovative and effective conditioning solution for the vast majority of people with phlegm-dampness constitutions. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the shortcomings of the prior art, and the present invention discloses a traditional Chinese medicine patch for regulating phlegm-damp constitution, which is composed of the following medicines in the following weight ratio: raw hawthorn 6g, cassia seed 7g, tangerine peel 9g, kudzu root 6g, cinnamon bark 3g, lotus leaf 6g, raw cattail pollen 7g, turmeric 6g, sophora flower 5g, and apocynum venetum 4g.

[0008] Preferably, the tangerine peel is high-quality tangerine peel, which has a high content of effective ingredients such as volatile oil and hesperidin, so as to better play the effects of regulating qi and dispersing cold, relieving fullness and relieving stagnation, and strengthening the stomach and intestines.

[0009] Preferably, the cinnamon is high-quality cinnamon with a high cinnamaldehyde content, so as to effectively play the role of warming yang and dispersing cold.

[0010] A method for preparing a Chinese medicine patch for regulating phlegm-dampness constitution comprises the following steps: S1. Raw material pretreatment: Select high-quality, mold-free, and impurity-free raw hawthorn, cassia seed, tangerine peel, kudzu root, cinnamon bark, lotus leaf, raw pollen, turmeric, sophora japonica flower, and apocynum venetum. Wash and pit the raw hawthorn, remove impurities from the tangerine peel, and chop it into small pieces. Remove impurities from other medicinal herbs to ensure the purity of the raw materials. S2, drying treatment: the pre-treated raw materials are placed in a drying equipment and dried at a temperature of 40-50°C for 5-8 hours to reduce the moisture content of the raw materials to less than 8%, which is convenient for subsequent grinding; S3, grinding into powder: placing the dried raw materials into a grinding device, first grinding them to a particle size of 80-100 mesh; then transferring the powder after the initial grinding to an ultrafine grinder, and further grinding them to a particle size of 200-300 mesh; S4, Packing: Pour the ground medicine powder into a mixing mixer, mix it evenly, and then put it into a non-woven bag with good air permeability and in line with hygiene standards, and seal it to make a phlegm-dampness patch.

[0011] Preferably, the drying equipment in the drying process of step S2 is a vacuum drying oven, and by controlling the vacuum degree at 0.05-0.08 MPa, the drying speed is accelerated and the active ingredients of the medicine are better retained.

[0012] Preferably, during the grinding process in step S3, the grinding equipment needs to be intermittently cooled to prevent the loss of drug components due to heat generated by grinding. The cooling time for each time is 5-10 minutes, and the interval grinding time is 20-30 minutes.

[0013] Preferably, 2-6 patches are applied daily, with each application lasting about 6 hours on the corresponding acupuncture points.

[0014] Preferably, the corresponding acupoints include Zusanli, Fenglong, Sanyinjiao and other acupoints that have the effect of resolving phlegm and removing dampness.

[0015] Preferably, the Chinese medicine patch is mainly used to prepare medicines for treating the above-mentioned diseases.

[0016] Preferably, when preparing drugs for treating gout, appropriate low-purine diet control can be combined to better exert the effect of the Chinese medicine patch in resolving phlegm and dampness and relieving gout symptoms.

[0017] In the compatibility of the above-mentioned Chinese medicine patch, Raw hawthorn: Sour, sweet, and slightly warm, it has the benefits of digesting food, dissolving stagnation, promoting qi, and dispersing blood stasis. Modern research shows that raw hawthorn is rich in maslinic acid, citric acid, and flavonoids, which promote gastrointestinal motility, aid digestion, and reduce food stagnation. This helps alleviate indigestion symptoms associated with spleen and stomach dysfunction in those with a phlegm-damp constitution. It also lowers blood lipids and regulates lipid metabolism, potentially improving the hyperlipidemia often associated with phlegm-damp constitutions. Its blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing properties also help improve circulation, providing a therapeutic benefit for cardiovascular conditions such as coronary heart disease.

[0018] Cassia seeds: Bitter in nature, they can dissipate heat, while sweet in nature can nourish. They are excellent at clearing liver heat and tonifying liver yin. Containing ingredients such as chrysophanol and cassia bark extract, Cassia seeds have the properties of clearing the liver, improving eyesight, and moistening the intestines and promoting bowel movements. Clearing liver heat helps regulate the balance of yin and yang in the body, and can improve symptoms of liver fire that may occur in those with a phlegm-damp constitution, such as red, swollen, and painful eyes. Their laxative properties promote intestinal peristalsis, aiding the excretion of phlegm, dampness, and toxins, alleviating the body's burden and alleviating constipation and other problems associated with a phlegm-damp constitution.

[0019] Tangerine peel: Pungent, warm, and fragrant, it's a sacred medicine for the spleen and stomach, known for regulating qi and dispelling cold, relieving stagnation, strengthening the stomach and intestines, and promoting healthy internal organs. Tangerine peel contains volatile oils and hesperidin, which promote the secretion of digestive juices, enhance gastrointestinal digestion, and help improve the spleen and stomach's ability to transport and transform food, thereby reducing the formation of phlegm and dampness. Its qi-regulating properties also regulate qi flow, promoting smooth qi circulation and dissipating phlegm and dampness. It effectively alleviates symptoms such as chest tightness and abdominal distension caused by phlegm and dampness.

[0020] Pueraria root: Its light and ethereal Qi promotes the ascending of clear Yang, encouraging the spleen and stomach's clear Yang Qi to move upward, thus achieving an antidiarrheal effect. Rich in isoflavones such as puerarin, Pueraria root has the properties of relieving muscle tension, reducing fever, promoting fluid production and quenching thirst, and promoting Yang and stopping diarrhea. This promotion of clear Yang helps regulate the body's water metabolism and promotes the excretion of dampness. Furthermore, Pueraria root dilates blood vessels and improves blood circulation, providing a therapeutic benefit for conditions such as hypertension that may accompany a phlegm-damp constitution.

[0021] Cinnamon: Pungent, sweet, and intensely hot, it possesses a pure yang-warming and dispersing property, making it a key herb for treating vital-gate fire deficiency. Components like cinnamaldehyde in cinnamon have the effects of tonifying fire and yang, dispelling cold and relieving pain, and warming and unblocking the meridians. These yang-warming properties promote the generation of yang energy, enhance the body's transport and transformation functions, and help transform cold and dampness, alleviating symptoms of yang deficiency in those with phlegm-damp constitutions, such as chills and cold extremities. Furthermore, its meridian-warming and unblocking properties promote the circulation of qi and blood, alleviating symptoms such as pain caused by phlegm-dampness blocking the meridians.

[0022] Lotus leaf: Clears heat and relieves summer heat, promotes the flow of clear yang, and cools blood to stop bleeding. Lotus leaf contains ingredients like nuciferine and citric acid, which regulate the body's water metabolism and promote the excretion of moisture through urine. Its heat-clearing properties also eliminate dampness and heat from the body, improving the dampness and heat found in those with phlegm-damp constitutions and alleviating symptoms such as a greasy face and bitter taste in the mouth. This yang-promoting effect also enhances the spleen and stomach's transport and transformation functions, helping to resolve phlegm and dispel dampness.

[0023] Raw Typhae Pollen: It has the ability to dissipate dampness, promote urination, and relieve blood stasis and stop bleeding. Flavonoids and other ingredients in raw Typhae Pollen promote the excretion of dampness through urine, acting as a damp-removing and hemostatic agent. Its blood-dispersing and hemostatic properties help improve blood circulation and prevent the intermingling of phlegm-dampness and blood stasis. It has a certain conditioning effect on the symptoms of blood stasis associated with phlegm-dampness constitutions, such as localized pain and skin and nail irritation.

[0024] Turmeric: Pungent, dispersing, warming, and promoting circulation, it dispels wind, cold, and dampness. Curcumin and other components in turmeric have the effects of promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, promoting qi circulation, relieving pain, and dispelling wind and dampness. This blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing effect improves circulation and eliminates blood stasis. It synergizes with other phlegm-removing and dampness-removing herbs to help dissipate phlegm and dampness. This wind-removing and dampness-removing effect can alleviate symptoms such as rheumatic pain associated with phlegm-damp constitutions, reducing joint pain, swelling, and other discomfort.

[0025] Sophora japonica flowers: Bitterness can clear away heat, and coldness can overcome heat, making them excellent at clearing heat and purging fire. Rich in ingredients like rutin and quercetin, Sophora japonica flowers have the effects of cooling blood and stopping bleeding, as well as clearing the liver and purging fire. Clearing heat and purging fire can eliminate excess heat in the body and improve internal heat symptoms such as sore throat and red eyes that may occur in those with phlegm-damp constitutions. This blood-cooling and hemostatic effect can help prevent bleeding symptoms caused by excessive blood heat in those with phlegm-damp constitutions.

[0026] Apocynum venetum: Bitter and cooling in nature, it calms liver yang and clears liver heat. Containing apocynin and quercetin, it has the effects of calming the liver and tranquilizing the mind, clearing heat and promoting diuresis. Calming liver yang helps regulate blood pressure and has a certain therapeutic effect on hypertension, a common symptom of phlegm-damp constitutions. Clearing liver heat can eliminate liver fire and alleviate symptoms such as dizziness and vertigo caused by liver fire. Its heat-clearing and diuretic effects promote the excretion of dampness and aid in the resolution of phlegm and dampness.

[0027] Compared with the existing technology, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: Comprehensive and targeted efficacy: This Chinese medicine patch utilizes a scientifically formulated combination of ingredients, including dried tangerine peel, raw hawthorn, and cassia seed, to synergistically resolve phlegm and dampness, regulate qi and clear heat, warm yang and dissipate dampness, effectively improving phlegm-damp constitutions. It is effective in treating obesity, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and other conditions by regulating phlegm-dampness, improving metabolic function, and alleviating phlegm-damp accumulation, thereby alleviating symptoms.

[0028] Natural and safe, with minimal side effects: The patch is made with natural Chinese medicinal herbs such as raw hawthorn and tangerine peel. Compared to chemically synthesized drugs, it has fewer adverse reactions and side effects on the human body. Long-term use is unlikely to cause damage to liver and kidney function, making it particularly suitable for patients with phlegm-damp constitutions who are weak and unresponsive to strong medications.

[0029] Rationalized manufacturing process maximizes efficacy: The meticulously designed production method, from raw material pretreatment and drying to fine grinding and packaging, ensures strict control at every step. For example, low-temperature drying at 40-50°C for 5-8 hours removes moisture for easier grinding while maximizing the retention of the active ingredients. Following initial grinding, ultrafine grinding to a mesh size of 200-300 greatly increases the surface area of ​​the medicinal material, facilitating the release of active ingredients, improving drug utilization, and enhancing the therapeutic effect.

[0030] Convenient to use and high compliance: The Chinese medicine patch is applied externally, 2-6 patches per day, with each application applied to the corresponding acupoint for approximately 6 hours. It is simple to use and can be used by patients themselves, without the need for complex medical equipment or professional guidance. Compared to oral medications, it avoids gastrointestinal irritation and eliminates the need for frequent medication, improving patient compliance and making it more suitable for long-term conditioning.

[0031] Wide Range of Applications, Economical and Practical: This Chinese medicine patch can be used to treat and regulate a variety of conditions associated with phlegm-dampness constitutions, encompassing multiple medical fields and a wide range of applications. Furthermore, its relatively low production cost and abundant raw material sources allow it to provide effective treatment while reducing the financial burden on patients. Its high cost-effectiveness makes it suitable for widespread application in clinical practice and daily life. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
