中药敷贴疗法及其应用

Chinese Medicine Application Therapy and Its Application

中药敷贴疗法途径直接,作用迅速,适应证广,用药安全,不良反应较少,无论是单独使用或结合其他方法协同治疗,其疗效均比单一疗法优越。目前对中药敷贴的研究多集中在临床经验总结及疗效评估方面,而中药外敷的疗效影响因素、外用药物剂型的制备工艺、释药速率、吸收程度等,以及外用组方配比和穴位与药物之间的协同作用机制的研究很少。中药敷贴所用组方多是古方或者是自配组方,剂型多为膏剂和糊剂,皮肤外敷给药起效较慢,而且人体所吸收的药量有限,敷贴疗法也存在着一定的局限性,如起效缓慢,吸收药量有限等。因此,逐步加深对敷贴疗法的机制研究,开展对敷贴组方配伍的探讨与临床试验,完善补充中药的外用功能,并结合现代经皮给药系统,研发疗效确切、迅速地透皮制剂,是一个重要的研究方向。

Chinese medicine application therapy's way is direct,and its effect is very quick. It is suit for many symptoms. It is safe and the adverse reaction is less. No matter it is used alone or with other treatments,the curative effect of it is better than any other monotherapy. Currently,many researches of Chinese medicine application concentrate on the summary of clinical experience and the efficacy assessment,but the studies on the factors affecting the effect,preparation process of external pharmaceutical dosage forms,release rate,degree of absorption,the proportion of external therapy ingredients and synergistic mechanism between acupoints and drugs are less. Most of Chinese medicine application's prescriptions are self-made. Most of dosage forms are ointment or paste. The effect of external application of skin is slower and the amount of medicine absorbed by the human body is limited. Chinese medicine application therapy has some limitations. So deepening the mechanism research of Chinese medicine application progressively, developing the exploration and clinical trials of application of combination prescription,perfecting and replenishing Chinese medicine external function,and in combination with the modern transdermal drug delivery system are important research directions to develop a transdermal preparation with exact and rapid efficacy.
