Abstract:
Tam Hoang powder (constituents: rhizoma Coptidis, cortex Oroxyli, radix and caulis Fibraurea, CuSO4) was used for healing process after hemorrhoid treatment. Chemical analysis showed that the prescription contained alkaloids (two of them were berberine and palmatine), flavonoids, amino acids, tannin, sterols and reduced sugars. The powder fluid extract exhibited antimicrobial activities against 5 Gr (-) and 5 Gr (+) bacteria. Tam Hoang powder proved to have good healing effect on over 85% of 500 hemorrhoid patients.
