Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine, and particularly relates to a traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating adenoid hypertrophy in children and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Adenoid hypertrophy (AH) in children is a common disease in children, and a common cause is inflammation of the nasopharynx and its adjacent organs and tissues, which causes the adenoid in the junction of the top wall and the back wall of the nasopharynx to grow and become hypertrophic. The disease is often accompanied by chronic tonsillitis and tonsillar hypertrophy, and the main clinical symptoms include nasal congestion, snoring, mouth breathing, runny nose, cough, and accompanying symptoms include expectoration, clearing the throat, sore throat, and the like, which are aggravated at night. The current treatment drugs mainly include anti-infective drugs, nasal glucocorticoids, and the like, and usually, the doctor will use drugs for treating rhinitis to relieve the relevant symptoms according to the symptoms and causes.

[0003] The treatment of children's adenoid hypertrophy by traditional Chinese medicine is mainly from the whole, and the evil is expelled while the healthy is assisted, which can improve the symptoms of the children and also regulate their constitution, improve the immune function, and prevent recurrence. Therefore, the development of traditional Chinese medicine treatment drugs has very important clinical significance for the treatment of the disease and the improvement of the life quality of the children.

[0004] There is no disease name of adenoid hypertrophy in ancient Chinese medical books, and according to the clinical manifestations and pathological characteristics, it can be classified into the categories of “nose congestion”, “snoring”, “pharyngeal swelling”, and “phlegm nucleus”. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the causes of adenoid hypertrophy in children have two aspects of external and internal causes, and the external cause is mainly caused by external evil or food accumulation, and the internal cause is mainly due to the weakness of the children, and the deficiency of the lung and spleen. The lung of children is tender and easy to be invaded by external evil, and the evil from the skin, mouth and nose invades the lung system, causes the lung to lose the function of descending, the waterway to be not smooth, the normal distribution of body fluid to be not normal, the body fluid to be condensed into phlegm, the phlegm to be accumulated in the nasopharynx, the lung orifice to be not smooth, and the adenoid to be hypertrophic, resulting in symptoms such as nasal congestion, snoring, mouth breathing and the like. The spleen of children is often insufficient, and the children do not know how to regulate the diet, and often have a partial taste for fatty and thick flavors, and if the food accumulation damages the spleen and stomach, the function of the spleen and stomach is disordered, the distribution of body fluid is obstructed, the body fluid is condensed into phlegm, and the phlegm is accumulated in the throat, resulting in the disease. It can be seen that the AH of children is located in the pharyngeal swelling, and is closely related to the lung and spleen, and the phlegm is an important pathological product, and the phlegm is accumulated in the pharyngeal swelling for a long time, which is the pathological basis of the adenoid hypertrophy and repeated nasal congestion and runny nose.

[0005] The traditional Chinese medicine prescription of the present application is an experienced prescription formed by Dr. Chen Yonghui, the affiliated children's hospital of Capital Institute of Pediatrics, on the basis of a large amount of clinical practice, which is composed of 9 medicinal materials such as Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae, Fritillaria Thunbergii Miq., Prunella Vulgaris L., Ostericum Magnolioides and Platycodon Grandiflorum, has the effects of resolving phlegm, dispelling accumulation, benefiting the throat and dredging the orifice, and is mainly used for treating adenoid hypertrophy in children. At present, the traditional Chinese medicine is being systematically researched by the Jianmin Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd. as a new drug of traditional Chinese medicine, and the formula and process have not been published. SUMMARY

[0006] The purpose of the present application is to provide a new treatment of pediatric adenoid hypertrophy of traditional Chinese medicine.

[0007] 1. Dialectical treatment AH in children belongs to the syndrome of deficiency in origin and excess in superficiality, and the core pathogenesis has the following aspects: Lung and spleen disorder, causing phlegm turbidity: children's "spleen is often insufficient", improper diet can easily cause the spleen to lose its transportation function, accumulate dampness and produce phlegm; "lungs are often insufficient", leading to external evil invading easily, lung losing its descending function, and fluid retention as phlegm. Phlegm turbidity is the pathological basis.

[0008] Phlegm and qi mutual knotting, stagnation and heat transformation: phlegm turbidity rises and falls with qi, stagnates in the junction of nose and pharynx (adenoid), and is mutually blocked with qi stagnation, forming phlegm nucleus (hypertrophic tissue), and heat is transformed due to long-term stagnation in the local area.

[0009] Obstruction of the passageway: phlegm nucleus blocks the nasal cavity, causing nasal congestion and snoring; stagnates in the throat, causing discomfort in the throat, cough.

[0010] Therefore, the treatment principle should be mainly "regulating qi, resolving phlegm and removing obstruction", and "clearing heat, moistening the throat and unblocking the passageway" at the same time.

[0011] 2. Prescription In the prescription, pericarpium citri reticulatae, which is pungent, bitter and warm, belongs to the spleen and lung meridians, and its core function is to "regulate qi, invigorate the spleen and dry dampness and resolve phlegm". The pathogenesis of pediatric adenoid hypertrophy begins with the dysfunction of the spleen and lung, poor qi movement, accumulation of dampness and phlegm. Pericarpium citri reticulatae can regulate qi to make the lung and spleen qi movement smooth, and can invigorate the spleen and dry dampness to reduce the generation of phlegm, which embodies the fundamental principle of "treating phlegm by regulating qi, and phlegm will be eliminated when qi is smooth". Fritillaria thunbergii miq., which is bitter and cold, belongs to the lung and heart meridians, and is the auxiliary monarch drug, with the functions of "clearing heat and resolving phlegm, and removing obstruction". Its "removing obstruction" function complements the "regulating qi" function of pericarpium citri reticulatae, and together resolves the core pathogenesis of "qi and phlegm obstruction". Its "removing obstruction" function directly acts on the lesion. The two drugs, one warm and one cold, one regulating qi and one removing obstruction, together are the monarch drug.

[0012] Herba prunellae, which is pungent, bitter and cold, belongs to the liver and gallbladder meridians, and has the functions of clearing liver fire and removing obstruction. Its "removing obstruction" function directly assists fritillaria thunbergii miq. to strengthen the effect, and its clearing liver fire effect can target the heat transformed by long-term phlegm and qi obstruction, or the physical characteristics of children's liver often having excess and easily assisting fire. Radix scrophulariae, which is sweet, bitter, salty and cold, belongs to the lung, stomach and kidney meridians, and has the functions of nourishing yin, clearing heat, resolving phlegm and removing obstruction. Its "removing obstruction" function is synergistic with herba prunellae and fritillaria thunbergii miq.. Phlegm and heat accumulation can easily damage yin fluid, radix scrophulariae can nourish yin and clear heat to prevent the dryness of phlegm and phlegm-removing drugs from damaging yin, and can also target the possible dry throat. Radix et rhizoma scrophulariae, which is bitter and sweet and cool, belongs to the lung, liver and stomach meridians, and has the functions of clearing lung and relieving throat. It targets the symptoms of discomfort in the throat, foreign body sensation and cough caused by phlegm and qi obstruction in the throat, and its cool nature can clear heat and its light quality can unblock the passageway, which is the key drug for improving the local symptoms of the throat. The three drugs, which are the auxiliary monarch drugs, remove obstruction, clear heat and relieve the throat, together are the ministerial drugs.

[0013] Yiyiren, Gan cool, spleen, stomach, lung, function of spleen, exudation, heat, pus, one, help, Chenpi, spleen, dampness, from the source to strengthen the power of phlegm, "Spleen for the source of phlegm"; two, auxiliary, its "pus" effect helps to dissipate local congestion, for the local congestion, as a minister. Jiegeng, bitter and acrid, spleen, function of lung, phlegm, throat, pus, one, load the drug up, the force of the drug up to the nose and throat disease; two, help, Chenpi, spleen, qi, phlegm, help, Zhebeimu, phlegm, throat, help, Muhu die, as a minister. Xinyi, Xingwen, spleen, stomach, lung, can be with aromatic Xindan power to promote the nasal passages, solve the airway obstruction of the emergency symptoms, as a minister. Fangfeng, Xinggan, slightly warm, spleen, liver, spleen, function of wind, table, dampness, help, Xinyi, and protect the table, prevent the induction or exacerbation of the disease, as a minister.

[0014] 3. Overall formula feature analysis: (1) "treatment of gas" first: Chenpi is the monarch, highlighting the "qi movement" in the development of AH key role. That only gas smooth, phlegm can be transported, stagnation can be scattered.

[0015] (2) monarch and minister, clear main and secondary: monarch (Chenpi, Zhebeimu) to solve the core pathogenesis (phlegm and qi resistance to form a knot); minister (Xiaakucaocao, Xuanshen, Muhudi) in "dissipate, clear heat, throat" three specific directions to strengthen the power of monarch, clear division of labor.

[0016] (3) dissipation of the power of concentration: Zhebeimu, Xiaakucaocao, Xuanshen three drugs with "dissipate" effect of the drug belongs to monarch and minister, forming a strong force to dissipate the adenoid hypertrophy of the pathological products.

[0017] (4) throat, nose, orderly: throat medicine Muhudi as a minister, emphasizing the importance of the throat symptoms; Xinyi, a throat medicine, focuses on solving the prominent symptom of nasal congestion. Clear levels, clear target.

[0018] (5) the function of the minister is comprehensive: Yiyiren spleen, solid foundation, Jiegeng, guided by the phlegm, Xinyi, throat, prevent changes, together with the monarch and minister, consolidate the effect, and pay attention to the whole.
