Abstract:
Referring to ZHANG Xichun's experience in treating dysentery from cold-fire accumulation, the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) in this paper can be divided into three stages including cold-fire accumulation stage, excessive heat and putrid intestine stage, and healthy qi deficiency and pathogen lingering stage. For people with slippery and excess pulse in the cold-fire accumulation stage, Xiaochengqi Decoction (小承气汤) added with Baishao (Radix Paeoniae Alba) and Gancao (Radix et Rhizoma Glycyrrhizae) can be used for purgation, while those with deficient pulse, Huazhi Decoction (化滞汤) or Xieli Decoction (燮理汤) can be used. In the excessive heat and putrid intestine stage, Tongbian Baitouweng Decoction (通变白头翁汤) and Jiedu Shenghua Elixir (解毒生化丹) are suggested. In the healthy qi deficiency and pathogen lingering stage, it is advised to use Jiedu Shenghua Elixir added with Shanyao (Rhizoma Dioscoreae), and Sanbao Porridge (三宝粥). Additionally, the medication rules, dosage and administration characteristics of Huanglian (Rhizoma Coptidis)-Rougui (Cortex Cinnamomi), Yadanzi (Fructus Bruceae), Diyu (Radix Sanguisorbae), Shanyao and Liuhuang (Sulphur) by ZHANG Xichun have been summarized with the help of modern pharmacological research, so as to provide new ideas for the treatment of UC by TCM.
