Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of veterinary traditional Chinese medicines, and particularly relates to a traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating canine distemper with neurological symptoms and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Canine distemper is an acute, febrile, highly contagious disease caused by the canine distemper virus. Clinically, the disease is characterized by biphasic fever, acute rhinorrhoea, bronchitis, catarrhal pneumonia, gastroenteritis, and neurological symptoms. Common neurological symptoms of canine distemper include convulsions, tremors, unsteady gait, and neck stiffness. 1. Convulsions: A typical symptom of canine distemper. After a dog is infected with the virus, the virus attacks nerve cells and interferes with nerve conduction, leading to convulsions. 2. Tremors: Sick dogs will experience muscle tremors, especially in the head and limbs. 3. Unsteady gait: Because the viral infection interferes with the nerve signals for balance and coordination, the animal cannot walk normally. 4. Neck stiffness: Because the virus attacks the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, the muscles become stiff, making it impossible for the animal to move freely.

[0003] In recent years, the incidence and mortality of canine distemper have been on the rise, with both rates being even higher in non-immune animals. Currently, there is no specific treatment for the disease, and clinical treatment primarily involves antiviral drugs, antipyretic drugs, and antibiotics combined with interferon, but these treatments are not ideal and cannot completely cure the disease. Therefore, developing a traditional Chinese medicine composition specifically for treating neurological symptoms of canine distemper is of great practical significance.

[0004] In view of this, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating neurological symptoms canine distemper and a preparation method thereof; the traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating neurological symptoms canine distemper solves the problem that neurological symptoms canine distemper is difficult to treat and cannot be cured.

[0009] Donkey hide gelatin, Ophiopogon japonicus, tortoise glue and turtle shell glue are the main drugs: nourishing yin and blood, replenishing blood, stopping bleeding, moistening dryness and promoting body fluid; Lycium barbarum, Cuscuta chinensis, Drynaria fortunei and Epimedium are the assistant drugs, which have the functions of replenishing kidney essence, kidney qi, replenishing blood, activating blood circulation and unblocking meridians; according to the principle of water generating wood, liver wind is the imbalance symptom caused by liver blood deficiency and inability of yin and yang to balance, so first replenish kidney essence and qi, then replenish blood and activate blood circulation, to achieve the purpose of nourishing liver blood, and thus achieve the purpose of stopping wind; Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria cocos, ginger, roasted liquorice, Evodia rutaecarpa, Arisaema consanguineum and Acorus calamus are the auxiliary drugs: drying dampness and promoting diuresis, replenishing qi and strengthening spleen, having the effects of dispelling cold and relieving pain, descending adverse qi and stopping vomiting, assisting yang and stopping diarrhea, detoxifying and reducing swelling, dispelling wind and calming the nerves, resolving phlegm and dispersing nodules, and mainly treating nerve paralysis, hemiplegia and convulsions; White peony root, oyster powder, magnet, Scutellaria baicalensis and earthworm are its guiding drugs: they have the effects of clearing away heat, detoxifying and stopping wind, calming the liver and suppressing yang, calming the mind, astringing and solidifying, promoting blood circulation and activating collaterals, and stopping epilepsy and convulsions; therefore, the Chinese medicine composition prepared by the present invention through the specific proportion of donkey-hide gelatin, turtle glue, turtle shell glue, Atractylodes macrocephala, Ophiopogon japonicus, Poria cocos, ginger, Evodia rutaecarpa, Arisaema confusa, Acorus calamus, Lycium barbarum, Cuscuta chinensis, Drynaria fortunei, Epimedium, oyster powder, magnetite, Scutellaria baicalensis, earthworm, white peony root, and roasted liquorice, under the synergistic effect of all components, can calm the liver and suppress yang, stop wind, nourish the liver and kidney, clear away heat and stop convulsions, and has a better therapeutic effect on the neurological symptoms such as muscle twitching, circling, collision, foaming at the mouth, clenched jaw, falling to the ground and convulsions caused by wind-heat internal movement caused by canine distemper, which consumes the body fluid and causes liver wind internal movement, which has better therapeutic effect.

[0010] The design optimization concept of the Chinese medicine composition formula of the present invention is:

[0011] Specifically, from the observation of the pathogenesis of canine distemper, the initial stage of the disease is a transient cold caused by wind and cold, followed by symptoms of wind and heat cold, such as yellow nasal discharge, yellow eye discharge, red papules on the groin skin, body temperature hovering around 40.5-41°C, and gradually the foot pads begin to harden, followed by neurological symptoms such as muscle twitching, tremors, severe opisthotonos, and falling to the ground and convulsions. However, after the neurological symptoms appear, the body temperature of many dogs returns to normal.

[0012] The Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) hypothesis states that high fever depletes body fluids, leading to liver blood deficiency and internalized liver wind. This wind initially affects the muscles, causing tremors. As liver blood continues to be depleted, the increasingly severe liver wind enters the marrow, causing opisthotonos and convulsions. Initial observations showed strong similarities between the neurological symptoms of Parkinson's disease in humans and those of canine distemper. The hypothesis was that the TCM pathogenesis in humans mirrors that in dogs, with constant muscle tremors and rhythmic contractions. Therefore, experimental treatments were conducted using herbs used to treat Parkinson's disease. However, the presence of centipedes in a Parkinson's formula was found to have side effects on dogs, so they were removed. Furthermore, multiple herbs, including Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria cocos, ginger, Evodia rutaecarpa, Arisaema consanguineum, and Acorus calamus, were added to the formula. After repeated testing, the resulting TCM combination reduced side effects and demonstrated improved therapeutic efficacy.

[0013] In terms of dosage, the dog should be fed according to a prescription of 150-200 catties body weight. The liquid medicine of a prescription should be boiled into 150-200 ml, and the dog should be orally administered at a rate of 1 ml of decoction per 1 catties body weight, once every 3 hours. The first course of treatment is four times of oral administration. Thereafter, the dog should be orally administered at a rate of 1 ml per 1 catties body weight, 2-3 times a day, for 5-10 days as a course of treatment. This method of administration innovates the intermittent dosing method, which has the advantage of alleviating the side effects of the drug. In addition, the blood concentration of the drug can be maintained at a sustained therapeutic concentration, reducing side effects and increasing the cure rate.
