Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine, and more specifically, to a traditional Chinese medicine powder for treating depression and anxiety, and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Anxiety disorder is a common mental health condition characterized by excessive and persistent worry, fear, and unease. Current technological challenges in anti-anxiety treatment primarily stem from the limitations of two main treatment systems: chemically synthesized drugs and traditional Chinese medicine formulas, directly impacting clinical efficacy and patient adherence.

[0003] Chemically synthesized drugs, such as serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), are first-line anxiolytics. While they can show efficacy within 2-4 weeks, clinical data shows that approximately 38% of patients experience initial adverse reactions, including nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, and headache. SSRIs such as voxamine inhibit the CYP1A2 and CYP2C19 enzyme systems, affecting melatonin metabolism and potentially worsening sleep disorders. Benzodiazepines... The dependence risk of certain drugs, such as alprazolam, is particularly prominent. The dependence risk can reach 30-50% after using them for more than 4 weeks, and sudden discontinuation can lead to severe withdrawal symptoms.

[0004] Traditional Chinese medicine compound formulas, such as Xiaoyao San (containing 8 herbs including Bupleurum and Angelica sinensis), have a clinical efficacy rate of only 61.3% for patients with severe anxiety disorder (GAD-7 score > 15). Moreover, they have a slow onset of action, requiring an average of 14±3 days to show efficacy, and are not able to provide timely relief for acute anxiety attacks. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a traditional Chinese medicine powder for treating depression and anxiety, which has significant advantages in anti-anxiety, calming the mind and promoting sleep, and regulating qi and blood through the synergistic effect of multiple medicinal materials.

[0013] On the other hand, embodiments of the present invention provide a method for preparing a traditional Chinese medicine powder for treating depression and anxiety, comprising the following steps:

[0014] S1. The raw aconite root is steamed at 100-120℃, dried, and then ground into powder.

[0015] S2, dry and grind the raw materials except for ginger juice into powder;

[0016] S3. Mix the ginger juice, the powder from step S1, and the powder from step S2 evenly to obtain the Chinese herbal powder.

[0017] In some embodiments of the present invention, in steps S1 and S2, the particle size of the powder is less than 80 mesh.

[0018] In some embodiments of the present invention, the water content of the traditional Chinese medicine powder is ≤9%.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of the present invention have at least the following advantages or beneficial effects:

[0020] The traditional Chinese medicine formula provided by this invention has significant advantages in anti-anxiety, calming the mind and promoting sleep, and regulating qi and blood through the synergistic effect of multiple medicinal materials. Its compatibility characteristics are mainly reflected in the following aspects:

[0021] Synergistic effects of soothing the liver and relieving depression, and calming the mind and stabilizing the spirit: The combination of Bupleurum (15-20 parts) and Curcuma longa (10-15 parts) can enhance the effect of soothing the liver and relieving depression, and alleviate emotional tension; the combination of Ziziphus jujuba seed (20-25 parts) and Albizia julibrissin bark (10-15 parts) can regulate the central nervous system and improve sleep quality. Acorus tatarinowii (10-15 parts) contains volatile oil components, which can open the mind and refresh the spirit, and help relieve cognitive impairment caused by anxiety.

[0022] This formula combines warming and invigorating the meridians with strengthening the spleen and eliminating dampness: The combination of raw aconite (20-25 parts) and cinnamon twig (5-10 parts) forms an "Aconite-Cinnamon Twig" pair, which can warm and invigorate the meridians and improve symptoms of cold extremities associated with anxiety; Atractylodes macrocephala (20-25 parts) combined with Poria cocos (5-10 parts) can strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness, alleviating somatic symptoms such as abdominal distension and loss of appetite. Fresh ginger juice (10-15 parts) can both enhance the efficacy of aconite and harmonize the spleen and stomach.

[0023] Toxicity control mechanism: The combination of prepared licorice root (6-12 parts) and aconite root in the formula can reduce toxicity, while jujube (3-10 parts) can moderate the medicinal properties, forming a classic combination of "reducing toxicity while preserving efficacy". The heat-clearing and blood-cooling effects of peony bark (15-20 parts) can balance the warm and dry nature of aconite root. Detailed Implementation

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below. Where specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer shall apply.

[0025] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the present invention can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments.

[0026] On one hand, embodiments of the present invention provide a traditional Chinese medicine powder for treating depression and anxiety, comprising the following ingredients by weight: 15-20 parts Bupleurum chinense, 20-25 parts Aconitum carmichaelii, 20-25 parts Ziziphus jujuba var. spinosa, 10-15 parts Curcuma longa, 10-15 parts Albizia julibrissin, 10-20 parts Poria cocos, 10-20 parts Cinnamomum cassia, 15-20 parts Paeonia suffruticosa, 6-12 parts Glycyrrhiza uralensis (processed), 20-25 parts Atractylodes macrocephala, 3-10 parts Ziziphus jujuba, 10-15 parts Acorus tatarinowii, and 10-15 parts fresh ginger juice.

[0027] In this embodiment of the invention, the functions and effects of each raw material are as follows:

[0028] Bupleurum root (15-20 parts), the dried root of Bupleurum chinense, a plant in the Apiaceae family, contains the active ingredients saikosaponins and volatile oils. It is a key herb for soothing the liver and relieving depression, regulating the Qi of the liver meridian, and alleviating symptoms such as low mood and chest tightness. When combined with white peony root, it can enhance the liver-soothing effect.

[0029] Turmeric (10-15 parts), the dried tuberous root of Curcuma aromatica, a plant of the ginger family. Its active ingredients are curcumin and volatile oil.

[0037] Moutan bark (15-20 parts), the dried root bark of the peony plant (Ranunculaceae family), contains the active ingredients paeonol and paeoniflorin. It clears heat and cools the blood while promoting blood circulation, and can balance the warm and drying properties of Aconitum carmichaelii. Modern research shows that paeonol has a sedative effect.

[0038] Prepared licorice root (6-12 parts): honey-processed rhizome of licorice, a legume. Active ingredients: glycyrrhizin, flavonoids. It harmonizes various medicines, detoxifies and relieves urgency. When combined with aconite, it can reduce toxicity while preserving efficacy.

[0039] Jujube (3-10 parts), the dried, ripe fruit of the jujube plant (Rhamnaceae family), contains the following active ingredients: cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and polysaccharides. It nourishes the spleen and stomach, calms the mind and soothes the nerves, and can moderate the effects of other medicines.

[0040] Ginger juice (10-15 parts): Juice extracted from the fresh rhizome of ginger, a plant in the ginger family. Active ingredients: gingerol, volatile oil. It warms the stomach and stops vomiting, enhances the efficacy of aconite, and harmonizes the spleen and stomach.

[0041] The principal herbs, Bupleurum (to soothe the liver) and Aconite (to warm the yang), form a dynamic balance of "draining and tonifying".

[0042] Assistant herbs: Ziziphus jujuba seed enhances the calming effect; Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria cocos, and Cinnamomum cassia form a triangular support system of "strengthening the spleen, promoting diuresis, and warming the yang"; Curcuma longa and Albizia julibrissin bark form an emotion regulation combination.
