Traditional Chinese medicine believes that dampness is a yin evil that is sticky, heavy, and tends to move downward. It can easily block the flow of Qi and affect the functioning of the spleen and stomach. And it often mixes with other evils to cause illness. Which Chinese patent medicines can be used to strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness? Experts point out that the Chinese patent medicines for strengthening the spleen and eliminating dampness mainly include Muxiang Shunqi Pills, Jianpi Pills, Guipi Pills and other medicines.

According to traditional Chinese medicine, dampness is the most common and also the most difficult to treat. The formation of moisture in the body can be divided into external and internal causes. The external cause is the high humidity in the air, while the internal cause is a weak spleen and stomach, which has poor ability to transport and remove moisture, leading to the stagnation of moisture inside the body. Improper diet, such as loving cold drinks, eating raw and cold fruits and other cold foods, can damage the body's yang energy and lead to dampness. Dampness is often combined with other factors to cause symptoms such as cold and dampness, summer-heat and dampness, and rheumatism.

Dampness is more likely to occur in humid weather. Common symptoms include: headache, dizziness, fatigue, back and leg pain, difficulty flexing and extending joints; or swelling of the eyes, legs and feet; chest tightness, abdominal distension, bland mouth, tasteless food, loss of appetite, indigestion, loose stools, thick and greasy tongue coating, etc. These are all what is called "heavy moisture".

The spleen can transport and transform water and dampness. The spleen likes dryness and hates dampness. If the spleen yang is invigorated, the spleen is functioning well, and its function of transporting water and transforming dampness is normal, dampness will not easily cause illness. On the contrary, when people become sick due to excessive dampness, they often experience dizziness, heaviness of the head, soreness and laziness in the limbs, and heaviness and pain in the body. In order to prevent and reduce the harm of dampness, it is necessary to pay attention to protecting the spleen. Only when the yang energy of the spleen and stomach is invigorated can we effectively resist the invasion of dampness, so warming and nourishing the spleen and stomach is the best way to remove dampness. Let’s take a look at the Chinese patent medicines that can strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness.
