百日咳中医治疗述评

Review on the treatment for pertussis with traditional Chinese medicine

西医治疗百日咳主要是抗生素治疗及对症处理,因抗生素耐药问题,疗效欠佳。中医治疗百日咳常用治法有肃降肺气、和胃止呕,疏肝泻火、清肺止咳,活血化瘀、清热化痰,解表散寒、温肺化饮。除内服中药汤剂外,针刺、穴位贴敷、按摩拔罐等外治方法也可用于治疗百日咳。以上方法均取得良效。因百日咳近年发病趋势有所上升,笔者通过阅读文献总结百日咳中医治疗方法,为进一步寻求治疗百日咳有效方法拓展思路。

Western medicine treatment for pertussis is mainly by antibiotic treatment and symptomatic treatment.Due to antibiotic resistance,the curative effect is not good.The common treatment methods for pertussis by traditional Chinese medicine include eliminating lung qi,harmonizing the stomach and stopping vomiting,soothing the liver and purging fire,clearing the lung and stopping cough,activating blood circulation and resolving blood stasis,clearing heat and resolving phlegm,relieving the external heat and dispersing coldness,and warming the lung and resolving yin.In addition to oral administration of traditional Chinese medicine decoction,external treatment methods such as acupuncture,acupoint application,massage and cupping can also be used to treat pertussis.The above methods have achieved good results.Because the incidence of pertussis has increased in recent years,the author summarized the traditional Chinese medicine treatment for pertussis through reading the literature in order to expand the ideas for further seeking effective methods of treating pertussis.
