Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of Chinese herbal medicines, and particularly relates to a Chinese medicine preparation for treating chronic heart failure. Background Art

[0002] Heart failure is a complex clinical syndrome caused by various heart diseases progressing to a serious stage. Its main features are left ventricular and (or) right ventricular dysfunction and changes in neurohumoral regulation, often accompanied by dyspnea, fluid retention, reduced exercise tolerance and significantly shortened survival time. Patients with underlying heart disease are more likely to develop heart failure. This disease cannot be cured, and the goal of treatment is to prevent and delay the occurrence and development of heart failure, relieve clinical symptoms, improve quality of life, improve long-term prognosis, and reduce mortality and hospitalization rates.

[0003] Although Western medicine has proposed a standardized chronic heart failure treatment plan based on evidence-based medicine, with diuretics and ACEI drugs as the cornerstone, the survival rate of heart failure is still low, and the 5-year survival rate is close to that of malignant tumors. Patients' physical activities are significantly limited. Some patients cannot adhere to long-term Western medicine treatment due to the side effects of Western medicine. During the treatment, the side effects on the human body are relatively large, and the human heart rate cannot be guaranteed. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The following will be combined with the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] Embodiment 1:

[0025] A traditional Chinese medicine preparation for treating chronic heart failure, comprising the following raw materials by weight: 15g of aconite root, 15g of poria, 15g of plantain seed, 15g of umbellatus, 15g of ligusticum chuanxiong, 30g of astragalus, 15g of codonopsis pilosula, 9g of cassia twig, 15g of glossy privet fruit, 30g of scutellaria baicalensis seed, 15g of peach kernel and 15g of pseudostellaria.

[0026] How to use this recipe:

[0027] Every patient admitted to the hospital is informed of the management of their lifestyle and diet, and is given conventional Western medicine treatment according to their respective conditions, including cardiotonic drugs (digitalis), diuretics (furosemide), vasodilators (nitroglycerin), and drugs such as beta-blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) or angiotensin Il receptor blockers (ARB). Patients with other complications such as hypertension and coronary heart disease are given symptomatic antihypertensive and lipid-lowering treatments.

[0028] The patients in the treatment group need to take the formula of the present invention in addition to conventional western medicine treatment, and the medication period is more than half a year.

[0029] The user prepares the required Chinese medicinal materials: ensure the required weight of Aconite, Poria, Plantago, Polyporus, Ligusticum chuanxiong, Astragalus, Codonopsis, Cassia twig, Ligustrum lucidum, Lepidium, Prunus persica and Pseudostellaria baicalensis are weighed, and ensure their quality and purity.

[0030] Wash the Chinese medicinal materials: Soak the Chinese medicinal materials in clean water for a period of time, then wash them clean to remove mud and other impurities. Dry the Chinese medicinal materials: Dry the washed Chinese medicinal materials to ensure that there is no moisture on the surface.

[0031] Slicing or crushing: Slice or crush the Chinese medicinal materials as needed. When the user needs to use them, the user puts the prepared quality medicinal materials into the casserole.

[0032] Before decocting the medicine, soak it in clean water for 30-40 minutes. After soaking, pour the medicine into the casserole for the first decoction. The amount of water added should be about 3 cm above the surface of the medicine. The amount of water for the second decoction should be reduced as appropriate. For tonic Chinese medicine, more water should be added as appropriate. The first decoction should be boiled for 20 minutes; the second decoction should be boiled for 15 minutes.

[0033] Use high heat when the Chinese medicine is not boiling, and use low heat after boiling. Stir frequently during the cooking process.

[0034] Generally, each dose of Chinese medicine needs to be decocted twice, each time until the amount of medicine is about 150 ml. Mix the two decoctions together for a total of 300 ml, divide it into two portions, and take it once in the morning and once in the evening.

[0035] The flavor and dosage of the medicine can be increased or decreased according to the specific symptoms of the patient. For example, when the patient has sleep problems such as restless nights, the heart-nourishing and calming drugs such as Ziziphus jujuba seeds, Polygala tenuifolia, and Polygala tenuifolia can be added as appropriate; if the patient has obvious cough and asthma, the cough and asthma-relieving drugs such as Fritillaria thunbergii and Gecko can be added as appropriate; if the patient has severe chest tightness and pain, the pungent and aromatic drugs such as Agarwood and Sandalwood can be added.

[0036] Embodiment 2:

[0037] A traditional Chinese medicine preparation for treating chronic heart failure comprises the following raw materials by weight: 18g of aconite root, 18g of poria, 18g of plantain seed, 18g of umbellatus, 18g of ligusticum chuanxiong, 30g of astragalus, 15g of codonopsis pilosula, 10g of cassia twig, 15g of glossy privet fruit, 35g of scutellaria baicalensis seed, 15g of peach kernel and 20g of pseudostellaria.

[0038] The method of using this formulation is the same as the method of using described in embodiment 1.

[0039] It is worth noting that the flavor and dosage of the medicine can be increased or decreased according to the specific symptoms of the patient. For example, when the patient has sleep problems such as restless nights, the heart-nourishing and calming drugs such as Ziziphus jujuba seeds, Polygala tenuifolia, and Polygala tenuifolia can be added as appropriate; if the patient has obvious cough and asthma, the cough and asthma-relieving drugs such as Fritillaria thunbergii and Gecko can be added as appropriate; if the patient has severe chest tightness and pain, the spicy and aromatic drugs such as Agarwood and Sandalwood can be added.

[0040] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
