organs is the fundamental cause of recurrent attacks, especially closely related to deficiencies in the lungs, spleen and kidneys. The primary treatment principles proposed are dispelling wind and relieving cough, as well as tonifying deficiency and supporting the upright

. Clinical practice should integrate differentiation of the root and branch as well as excess and deficiency, applying staged treatment. During the acute attack phase, the focus is on dispelling wind and stopping cough, supplemented by tonification. During the remission phase, tonifying deficiency and supporting the upright

is emphasized, with coordinated regulation of the lungs, spleen and kidneys alongside clearing residual pathogens, so that the pathogenic are eliminated and the body restored, leading to natural resolution of cough and reversal of adverse
