Astragalus, chrysanthemum and tangerine peel can be taken together.
The medicinal effects of astragalus are to tonify qi and raise yang, consolidate the surface to stop sweating (stop sweating by strengthening the muscle surface), diuretic, promote fluid production and nourish blood, move stagnation to clear paralysis (make paralyzed meridians smooth), support toxins to expel pus (expel pus and toxins in the body), and astringent sores to regenerate the muscle (help sores to heal more quickly, and promote the growth of new flesh).
Astragalus is mainly used to treat qi deficiency and spontaneous sweating (involuntary sweating during the day, aggravated by sweating with slight movement), qi and blood deficiency, spleen and lung qi deficiency, sores and ulcers that are difficult to ulcerate and putrefy, or sores and ulcers that are difficult to converge for a long period of time, and other conditions. Chrysanthemum should be contraindicated when sores are at the beginning or after sores have been ulcerated, when there is an abundance of solid evil on the surface, and when there is still an abundance of heat and toxin.
Chrysanthemum’s medicinal effects include clearing heat and removing toxins, dispersing wind and clearing heat, calming the liver and improving eyesight.
Chrysanthemum is mainly used for treating canker sores, wind-heat and colds, redness and swelling of the eyes, headache and dizziness, and dimming of the eyes. It should be used sparingly for those with Qi deficiency, cold stomach, poor appetite and diarrhea, and is contraindicated in patients with Yang deficiency or headache and bad cold (fear of cold).
The medicinal effects of Chen Pi are to regulate qi, strengthen the spleen, dry dampness and dissolve phlegm (expelling dampness by drying dampness and dissolving phlegm).
Chen Pi is used to treat distention and fullness in the stomach and abdomen (a feeling of distension and fullness in the stomach and epigastric region), poor appetite, vomiting and diarrhea, and coughing with excessive phlegm.
The above three drugs generally do not have drug interactions and can be taken together. Specific medication should be carried out under the guidance of a specialist, not unauthorized use of drugs.
