Abstract:
TCM believes that apoplexia is a disease of deficiency in origin and asthenia in superficiality. The deficiency is mainly the Qi deficiency and the superficiality is turbid phlegm retention and blood stasis due to Qi deficiency. Therefore, the therapeutic method should treat the origin of apoplexy as well as its superficiality. Based on the pathogenesis of apoplexy of Qi deficiency and phlegm-blood stasis, Naomaitai Capsule was formulated with the functions of supplying Qi to consolidate the origin, activating blood flow, dissipating phlegm, dredging collaterals, and stopping endogenous wind.
