ABSTRACT
At present, the clinical research of Huanglian-Ejiao Decoction for anti-anxiety mainly focuses on the treatment of western medicine combined with the addition and subtraction of Huanglian-Ejiao Decoction. By observing the generalized anxiety patients with heart kidney disharmony or secondary anxiety symptoms of yin deficiency and fire hyperactivity type after taking Huanglian-Ejiao Decoction, all the studies show that this prescription can effectively improve the anxiety state of patients, and has long-term effect, low incidence of adverse reactions and low recurrence rate. However, there are also some deficiencies in the study, such as in the study of generalized anxiety, most clinical observation of TCM syndrome differentiation has no authoritative standard, some of the inclusion criteria for generalized anxiety and panic disorder are not clear, and the course of generalized anxiety is persistent, the observation of long-term efficacy and recurrence rate of diseases is obviously insufficient; in the study of anxiety syndrome, for anxiety disorder The diagnostic criteria of the disease are often not clear, the evaluation criteria of anxiety improvement are not unified, and there lacks the evaluation of safety. At the same time, the mechanism research on Huanglian-Ejiao Decoction is not perfect.
