Abstract:
Qingningsan is the seventh prescription in the Catalogue of Ancient Classical Prescriptions (the Second Batch) issued by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine. This paper uses the method of bibliometrics to systematically analyze the ancient books that record Qingningsan from the aspects of prescription source, composition, dosage, preparation method, usage, indications, formulation principle, drug processing, and modification, sort out its historical origin, and clarify its key information. The results showed that Qingningsan was first recorded in Chen Fuzheng's Complete Work on Children's Diseases in the Qing dynasty. It was mainly used to treat cough caused by heat accumulation in the heart and lung of children, and it is mainly used to treat children's respiratory diseases with cough and expectoration as the main symptoms, with the indications roughly the same as that of ancient applications. This paper suggests that the prescription can be prepared with 0.42 g honey-fried Mori Cortex (dried root bark of Morus alba), 0.42 g stir-fried Descurainiae Semen (dried mature seeds of Descurainia sophia), 0.42 g wine-processed Poria (pale brown or reddish dried sclerotia of Poria cocos), 0.42 g salt-processed Plantaginis Semen (dried mature seeds of Plantago asiatica), and 0.21 g stir-fried Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma (dried roots and rhizomes of Glycyrrhiza uralensis). The above drugs are pulverized into fine powder and 1.87 g should be taken each time with the decoction of Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens and Jujubae Fructus. This study provides a theoretical basis for the clinical application of the classic formula Qingningsan and the research and development of related preparations.
