Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment Strategies for Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis-related Cough
Cough is one of the main symptoms of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Violent and refractory coughing seriously affects the patients' quality of life and is related to the progression of IPF. It is believed that lung-spleen-kidney deficiency, especially
qi
deficiency of lung-kidney is the basic pathogenesis of IPF-related cough. Simultaneously, patients with deficiency of
zang
-
fu
(脏腑) organs are prone to generating phlegm and stasis, or easily affected by pathogenic wind and cold, which leads to lung failing to diffuse and govern descent and cough aggravated. In clinical practice, it is suggested to treat the IPF-related cough from the perspective of “deficiency cough”. The re-commended methods include supplementing kidney and boosting essence, which can use Shudihuang (
Radix Rehmanniae Praeparata
) and Shanzhuyu (
Fructus Corni
) to supplement and boost kidney essence, receive
qi
reception, consolidate the root and relieve cough; the method of regulating and supplementing lung-spleen, and harmonizing
qi
movement of middle
jiao
(中焦) is also advised, which can use Huangqi (
Astragalus memebranaceus
) to supplement chest
qi
, and
Banxia Xiexin Decoction
(半夏泻心汤) to harmonize
qi
movement of middle
jiao;
the last recommended method is diffusing and governing descent of lung
qi,
astringing the lung and relieving cough, which uses
Jinfeicao Powder
(金沸草散) and
Zhisou Powder
(止嗽散) to diffuse and govern descent of lung
qi,
and Wuweizi (
Fructus Schisandrae Chinensis
) and Baishao (
Radix Paeoniae Alba
) to astringe the lung and relieve the cough. The combined use of all these methods can effectively control the IPF-related cough and improve the patients' quality of life.
