Abstract:
This paper summarizes Professor HAN Mingxiang's clinical experience in the use of Zeqi (Euphorbia HelioscopiaL.). It is believed that Zeqi (Euphorbia HelioscopiaL.) has the effects of promoting qi, relieving water retention and swelling, resolving phlegm, stopping cough, dissipating masses, activating blood, removing stasis, and detoxifying. In clinical practice, Zeqi (Euphorbia HelioscopiaL.) is flexibly applied in the treatment of skin diseases, respiratory diseases, tumors, etc. For instance, in treating psoriasis with the pathogenesis of damp-heat toxin, a compound prescription of Zeqi Decoction (泽漆汤) is formulated. For bronchial asthma with kidney deficiency and water retention, Zeqi Decoction is commonly combined with Wuling Powder (五苓散) in adjusted doses. For lung nodules with a combination of deficiency, phlegm, stasis, and toxin, a Lung Nodule Prescription is proposed. For advanced lung cancer with both qi and yin deficiency and toxin accumulation, Qiyu Sanlong Decoction (芪玉三龙汤) is suggested, and for cancer-related ascites with qi deficiency and water retention, Wuling Powder combined with Zeqi (Euphorbia HelioscopiaL.)is chosen.
