Tuberculosis is a chronic infectious disease of the lungs caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. Mycobacterium tuberculosis attacks the mucous membrane of the lung tissue, which is also known as consumption in Chinese medicine. Panax notoginseng powder is a kind of hot Chinese medicine, so if TB patients take Panax notoginseng powder at this time, it may aggravate the dry heat in the lung and make the symptoms worse, such as coughing, coughing and hemoptysis more obvious. Therefore, patients with tuberculosis should take Chinese herbal medicines that promote lung heat and moisten the lungs, rather than those that are too hot and enhance the heat in the lungs.
