processing mode
1. It is reported that Tamiflu is effective within 48 hours after infection.
2. It is reported that general treatment of viruses, such as Viral Spirit, has certain effects;
3. Antibiotics are used to treat upper respiratory tract infections and complications;
4, antipyretic and analgesic drugs, such as paracetamol, symptomatic treatment;
5. Have a good rest and drink plenty of water;
6. It is very important to see a regular hospital in time when symptoms appear.
At present, there is no specific medicine for human infection with influenza A (H 1N 1). There are four commonly used anti-influenza drugs, but clinically, this mutant virus is resistant to two of them.
There are two drugs, 1) adamantanes (adamantane and amantadine) and 2) neuraminidase inhibitors for influenza (Tamiflu, oseltamivir and zanamivir).
In the past, most cases of influenza A (H 1N 1) reported complete recovery, and medical care and antiviral drugs were not needed.
Some influenza viruses are resistant to antiviral drugs, which limits the therapeutic effect. Recently, human cases infected with influenza A virus H 1N 1 obtained from the United States are sensitive to Tamiflu and amantadine and reduced dopamine resistant to zanamivir.
This information is not enough to suggest the use of antiviral drugs to treat influenza A virus H 1N 1 infection. Clinicians must evaluate patients according to their clinical and physiological conditions and consider the possible positive and negative effects of treatment. In the United States and Mexico, where influenza A (H 1N 1) virus broke out, national and local authorities recommended using oseltamivir or zanamivir for treatment in the virus sensitivity manual.
Traditional therapy in China
Influenza A (H 1N 1), as a kind of influenza, can be treated with the theory and methods of traditional Chinese medicine. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, influenza is an exogenous evil, which is confined to the lung meridian. Lung qi cannot be lowered, and people will shed tears, have fever, have bad wind, have a bad cold, have a headache and feel pain. San Xuan is easy to occur, such as Guizhi Decoction, Mahuang Decoction and Pueraria Decoction. If it is not treated in time, it will turn into internal injury, leading to kidney yang failure, endogenous yin cold, kidney collaterals leading to lung, deficiency of heart and lung yang, uncontrollable body fluid, but clear nose. The patient must have no symptoms of exogenous diseases, lethargy and listlessness, or sneezing constantly, or cold hands and feet. It is advisable to use Sini Decoction, Bai Tong Decoction, Bee Mei Dan Decoction, Mahuang Fuzi Asarum Decoction and Gui Jiang Decoction to help yang.
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes syndrome differentiation and treatment, and treats influenza according to its types. There is a trick: whenever you see sneezing, runny nose and stuffy nose without other symptoms, it belongs to internal cold. Regardless of the severity, taking Sini Decoction and Mahuang Fuzi Asarum Decoction will be effective. If the disease is gone, stop taking the medicine and leave no sequelae. If you take other cold medicines, it will not only be ineffective, but also deepen the pathogenic factors and evolve into serious diseases such as lung and kidney.
Therefore, taking medicine to treat influenza but treating exogenous diseases will definitely not have a good effect. But also accumulate yin and evil in the body, which will definitely attack at some time. At present, the treatment methods of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine have the function of converging yin and evil again, which will eventually lead to respiratory diseases such as asthma, rhinitis, pharyngitis and tracheitis.
Chinese medicine is completely different from western medicine in treating influenza. It does not need to consider the pathogenic virus, but only treats the flu according to the specific symptoms of the patient. Therefore, Chinese medicine can treat influenza A (H 1N 1) or any other influenza in the same way, and the premise of treatment is syndrome differentiation.
The onset time and area of influenza or plague has its fixed rules to follow. Because influenza and plague are both "warm" and "dry", they usually occur in spring and autumn or at the turn of the season. Therefore, most outbreaks in spring start from the south and gradually develop northward with the increase of temperature; The autumn epidemic started in the north and gradually developed to the south with the decrease of temperature. This is also the reason why influenza virus (or epidemic virus) will mutate with the change of climate temperature and human hotbed.
At the same time, the areas where influenza and plague occur are often closely related to local living habits (life erosion) and medical fashion (abuse of tonics, cold medicines or antibiotics). For example, the plague of livestock and poultry, mainly due to castration, enclosure led to reduced activity, hormone feeding, the stimulation of a large number of eggs and other factors, greatly weakened the resistance of livestock and poultry, it is difficult to resist the plague. Humans are infected with plague because of lack of exercise, improper diet and excessive sexual intercourse, which leads to lack of vitality and low immunity.
In a word, the treatment of influenza A (H 1N 1) in TCM is based on syndrome differentiation and effective treatment according to specific symptoms, pulse condition and tongue coating. Similar to the SARS epidemic, the treatment of influenza A (H 1N 1) by Chinese medicine can be said to be full of credit.
