Reconstruction of Chinese materia medica-common anemarrhena rhizome
Based on the investigation of ancient books and literature,and achievements of modem research on traditional Chinese medicine,and the understanding and application experience of experts and scholars in the fields of clinical medicine and traditional Chinese pharmacology,it is believed that common anemarrhena rhizome is mainly characterized by the follows:Its effects are mainly clearing heat for purging fire,and nourishing yin for moistening dryness.Its symptom targets are fever,thirsty,dysphoria and dry cough caused by lung heat.Its biochemical indicator target is high blood glucose.Modern pharmacology has found that the herb and its effective components have the antipyretic,anti-inflammatory,pathogenic microorganism-resistant,hypoglycemic,airway inflammation-improving,pulmonary fibrosis-relieving,sedative-hypnotic,sympathetic nerve-regulating,anti-tumor,and lipid-lowering effects.The herb is bitter,cold,greasy and slippery,so it should not be taken by those with the syndromes of deficient cold in the spleen and stomach,internal stagnation of cold-dampness and loose stool.Its clinical dosage range is 6-90 g.When it is used in large doses in clinic,attention should be paid to avoiding the injury of the spleen and stomach caused by its bitter-cold nature.It can be combined with fresh ginger,dried ginger,fructus amomi tsao-ko,cassia bark and other pungent-warm drugs,and the dose-effect relationship between its dosage and symptom targets or test index targets should be actively explored.
