Traditional Chinese medicine analyzes that this round of new crown is a “damp virus epidemic”, and Zhengqi tablets are sent to Fangcang cabin hospitals to help infected people accelerate recovery

The Shanghai Municipal Health Commission approved the project for the prevention and treatment of asymptomatic patients with the new crown of the new crown. Zhengqi tablets, which have been released on April 7 He was sent to the Fangcang shelter hospital in Japan, and the treatment and scientific research work were promoted simultaneously. This project is led by Lin Guoqiang, Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Professor Gao Yueqiu, Vice President of Shuguang Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and captain of the medical team dispatched by Shuguang to the Fangcang shelter hospital. The development research group is responsible for the implementation, and Shanghai Hehuang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. cooperates to complete the project.

The Omicron strain is highly contagious and has produced a large number of asymptomatic infections. These hidden spreaders have made prevention and control more difficult. How to make the nucleic acid detection of more asymptomatic infections turn from positive to negative as soon as possible, adjust the body state of asymptomatic infections, and eliminate mild or latent symptoms of asymptomatic infections are currently important scientific research topics.

According to the introduction of the research group, the Shangyao brand Zhengqi tablet is composed of patchouli oil, perilla leaf oil, wood incense, atractylodes, licorice, tuckahoe, tangerine peel, pinellia, ginger Magnolia and ginger. The main functions are: Disperses wind-cold, dissipates dampness and neutralizes the middle, and is used for colds and colds, headache, chest tightness, vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal distension.

It is reported that, in order to comprehensively improve the efficacy and safety, the Zhengqi tablet formulation has been improved on the basis of the Huoxiang Zhengqi prescription: patchouli oil and perilla leaf oil are used to enhance aroma, dampness, and dispersion. The effect of wind-cold; Atractylodes is changed to Atractylodes, Dabupi is changed to Muxiang, the effect of strengthening the spleen and stomach, drying dampness and strengthening the spleen is enhanced, and the effect on gastroenteritis is better; “Making Pinellia + ginger” is safer, and delete Angelica, Platycodon grandiflorum, and jujube were selected, and the ingredients of the formula were optimized and simplified.

According to the latest “Expert Consensus of Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnosis and Treatment of Novel Coronavirus Infection in Shanghai (Spring Edition 2022)”, the recent new coronary pneumonia in Shanghai belongs to the category of dampness and toxins. Stasis and poison are the core of the treatment, and the goal of treatment is to accelerate the clearance of the virus. In the Chinese patent medicine treatment plan, Huoxiangzhengqi Capsules (pills, water, oral liquid) are used for the treatment of asymptomatic dampness heavier than heat. In this project, Zhengqi tablets are designed to be applied on a large scale in Shanghai Fangcang shelter hospitals, to observe the effect of Zhengqi tablets for asymptomatic infection in turning negative in nucleic acid detection and eliminating symptoms. The study on the mechanism of action of the virus provides a scientific basis for the follow-up treatment and management of infected patients.
