Even if you haven't used Suxiao Jiuxin Wan, you've probably heard of it. It's a traditional Chinese patent medicine for treating heart diseases, composed of two herbal ingredients: Chuanxiong (Ligusticum Wallichii) and Borneol.

Among them, the herb Chuanxiong (Ligusticum Wallichii) can not only be used to treat coronary heart disease but also cerebral infarction. How does Chuanxiong treat cerebral infarction?

One of my previous stroke patients suffered a sudden cerebral infarction due to blood stasis in the blood vessels that completely blocked them, cutting off blood supply to the brain.

The symptoms presented by the patient are also related to blood stasis. In treatment, I used the herb Chuanxiong (Ligusticum chuanxiong) because of its blood-activating and stasis-resolving properties, which help clear blood stasis from the vessels. Combined with Astragalus root (Huangqi), Chinese angelica (Danggui), and red peony root (Chishao), these herbs work together to help restore the patient's health.

Therefore, treating multiple diseases with one medicine is precisely a characteristic of Chinese medicine. By customizing the formula according to the patient's specific condition, a small herb can exert remarkable effects. This is also why we advise against using ready-made prescriptions indiscriminately.

Through dialectical analysis, each prescription is tailored to the individual patient, with every medicinal herb precisely targeting specific disorders in your body, ensuring no waste of medicinal materials. Furthermore, this approach significantly enhances therapeutic effectiveness in disease treatment.
