Can patients with brain hemorrhage drink astragalus in water

Patients with cerebral hemorrhage should not drink astragalus infused water during the acute phase because astragalus is a Chinese herb that is sweet and slightly warm and can be attributed to the body’s lung meridian. When the patient is in the acute stage of cerebral hemorrhage, drinking astragalus infused water may cause the patient’s blood pressure to fluctuate and rise, which is not conducive to the control of cerebral hemorrhage, so it should not be drunk. Astragalus is a Chinese herbal medicine that has the function of tonifying the qi and fixing the surface, supporting the toxicity and drainage of pus, diuretic and muscle production. In clinical practice, Huang Qi is mainly used in the treatment of Qi deficiency and weakness or spontaneous sweating and night sweating, and for the treatment of Qi and blood deficiency, tonifying Qi and generating blood. Patients with cerebral hemorrhage who have symptoms in terms of Qi and blood and deficiency at the time of sequelae can appropriately drink Astragalus infusion for improvement, but patients need to do so on the basis of strict control of blood pressure.
