Patient's question:
A few weeks ago, I had a cold that wouldn't go away. Later, I went to see a doctor who prescribed a box of Ginseng and Su Cold Tablets and many anti-inflammatory medications. However, I haven't taken this medicine yet, so I'd like to understand its efficacy and effectiveness a bit. What are the effects of Taiji Ginseng and Su Cold Tablets?Doctor's answer:
Shansu Pill is a widely used medicine in clinical diagnosis, but many consumers are still unclear about its actual effects. Below, we will briefly explain the functions of Shansu Pill. Shansu Pill is composed of eleven traditional Chinese herbal ingredients, including Codonopsis pilosula, Perilla frutescens, Pueraria lobata, Peucedanum praecox, Poria cocos, Pinellia ternata (processed), Tangerine peel, Citrus aurantium (roasted), Platycodon grandiflorum, Ajuga decumbens, and Licorice.Codonopsis pilosula, as the primary herbs, tonifies qi and supports the body's healthy functioning, while Perilla frutescens dispels wind-cold externally. Geum, Peucedanum praecox, and Platycodon grandiflorum relieve muscle aches and dispel wind-cold, clearing the lungs and expelling phlegm. Poria cocos, Pinellia ternata, Tangerine peel, and Platycodon grandiflorum open the chest, regulate qi, and alleviate coughing. Citrus aurantium and Ajuga decumbens broaden the chest and relieve fullness, serving as assistant herbs. Licorice, as the envoy, harmonizes all the ingredients.
When used together, these herbs support the body's healthy functioning while helping to dispel external pathogens without harming the body. This restores vital energy, disperses wind-cold, and alleviates all symptoms, leading to recovery.
