Mixing these medications can be fatal!
Case 1: An 18-year-old girl from Jiangmen, Guangdong, died unexpectedly after taking both roxithromycin and compound methoxamine capsules simultaneously for a cold. ——Compound methoxamine capsules contain the following ingredients: aminophylline, methoxamine, noscapine, and chlorpheniramine. Roxithromycin is a hepatic enzyme inhibitor that can reduce the clearance rate of aminophylline, significantly increasing its blood concentration and leading to aminophylline toxicity. Symptoms of aminophylline toxicity include muscle tremors, tachycardia, and arrhythmias; in severe cases, it can even cause respiratory and cardiac arrest, resulting in death. ——Patients currently taking aminophylline should avoid concurrent use with macrolide antibiotics (such as erythromycin, clarithromycin, and roxithromycin).

Are you sure you know all the benefits of dried tangerine peel?
Chenpi, also known as tangerine peel, Gui Lao, Hong Pi, Huang Ju Pi, Guang Ju Pi, Hui Pi, Gan Pi, and Guang Chenpi, is distributed throughout regions south of the Yangtze River. When the fruits ripen from October to December, they are harvested, and the peels are carefully stripped off and then air-dried or sun-dried in a well-ventilated area. When harvesting Guang Chenpi, the peels are often cut into 3 to 4 segments. In traditional Chinese medicine, Chenpi is categorized into two types: "Chenpi" and "Guang Chenpi." As the saying goes in TCM, "A century-old Chenpi is worth more than a thousand-year-old ginseng"—this vividly illustrates the exceptionally high medicinal value of Chenpi. When used in combination with tonifying herbs, Chenpi helps replenish vital energy; when paired with herbs that promote downward movement, it aids in descending and settling. Moreover, by combining Chenpi with various foods, not only can its therapeutic effects be enhanced to treat a wide range of ailments, but it can also be incorporated into medicinal diets. Let’s take a closer look at Chenpi now!

Strengthening the management of Chinese medicinal materials and processed herbal slices is of great significance for safeguarding their quality and safety, protecting public health, promoting the sustained and healthy development of the Chinese medicine industry, and fostering the prosperity of traditional Chinese medicine. Relevant national authorities have formulated development plans for Chinese medicinal materials and have stepped up quality supervision over these materials and processed herbal slices. However, judging from various inspections and sampling tests conducted in recent years by national and provincial/municipal drug regulatory agencies, quality issues in the field of Chinese medicinal materials and processed herbal slices remain prominent. In particular, the State Administration has recently been issuing frequent notices about Chinese medicinal herbal slice products and enterprises found to have quality problems, drawing significant attention from the industry.

These Chinese herbs can beautify the skin.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, there are many medicinal herbs with the surname “Bai,” such as Bai Zhu, Bai Zhi, Bai Ji, and Bai Fu Ling—all of which possess certain skin-nourishing and whitening effects. These herbs are frequently featured in ancient Chinese medical texts in beauty and anti-aging formulas. Bai Zhu has a bitter taste and a warm nature. It strengthens the spleen and replenishes vital energy, removes dampness, and promotes diuresis. People with weak spleen and stomach often have poor complexion and a yellowish face; Bai Zhu can regulate the spleen and stomach, tonify qi and nourish blood, thereby whitening and moisturizing the skin. Modern medical research has shown that Bai Zhu has antioxidant properties. Bai Zhi has a fragrant, pungent flavor and a warm nature; it is an exterior-releasing herb commonly used in whitening formulas.

There’s something we often overlook yet are influenced by every single moment—namely, “emotions.” Positive emotions can have a beneficial impact on our health, while certain “negative emotions” can harm our well-being and even trigger specific illnesses. So, what exactly are negative emotions? Simply put, negative emotions are those that make us unhappy or even cause us pain—such as anger, sadness, fear, anxiety, jealousy, guilt... They bring us unpleasant feelings, leading us to make irrational decisions and engage in unproductive behaviors like avoidance, denial, or procrastination. As a result, instead of resolving the problem, these negative emotions only tend to intensify.

[China Pharmaceutical Network Conference Forum] The development of Chinese medicine formula granules represents a second revolution in the Chinese medicine industry. The first revolution in the 1970s involved reforming traditional Chinese patent medicines into modern dosage forms, which spurred the rapid development of the Chinese medicine sector. However, treating diseases with TCM cannot rely solely on these patent medicines. Under the guidance of TCM’s theory of syndrome differentiation and treatment, practitioners still largely depend on preparing decoctions from crude herbs. This practice, while effective, has also brought many inconveniences to patients. To meet patients’ needs, developing Chinese medicine formula granules as a substitute for crude herbs is an inevitable trend. Although Chinese medicine formula granules are designed for ease of use, they must also deliver comparable therapeutic efficacy to that of crude herbs.
