Night sweating (abnormal sweating after going to sleep and stopping after waking up) can be treated with Angelica Six Horns Soup, but the therapeutic formula must be determined according to the patient’s specific condition. Night sweating is usually caused by yin deficiency and fire exuberance (deficiency of yin and essence in the body, resulting in hyperactivity of deficiency fire).
The treatment of night sweating due to yin deficiency and fire exuberance with Angelica Sinensis Six Horns Soup is based on the identification of the more obvious signs of heat and night sweating such as dryness of stool and yellowish redness of urine. The adverse effects of Angelica Sinensis Liu Huang Tang are not clear. It is contraindicated for those who are allergic to the drug, and those who have weak spleen and stomach and loose diarrhea (thin and unformed stools). If you need to use the drug, it is recommended to consult a regular hospital, consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner for evidence-based guidance, and follow the doctor’s instructions to standardize the treatment, do not blindly self-medication, so as not to delay the condition.
