Effects and efficacy of Astragalus injection

Clinical symptoms of viral myocarditis: respiratory or gastrointestinal infection a few days or 2 weeks before the onset of heart disease, which may be accompanied by mild to moderate fever, sore throat, diarrhea, rash and other symptoms, followed by heart disease. In clinical medicine, it can be treated with Scutellaria baicalensis injection. So, what is the effect of Scutellaria baicalensis injection?

The functions of Scutellaria baicalensis injection are to nourish blood and essence, strengthen the body and eliminate evil, nourish the spirit and dredge the meridians, and strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness. It is used for viral myocarditis caused by deficiency of heart qi and blood stasis, and also for hepatitis caused by heart failure and spleen deficiency and dampness.

The effects of Scutellaria baicalensis injection include the following:

1) It has anti-myocardial ischemia and heart protection effects: it can reduce the left atrial enlargement and infarction area expansion of myocardial infarction model rats, improve left ventricular contraction and left ventricular function, and improve left ventricular reconstruction after myocardial infarction. Lowers cholesterol, improves left ventricular and left ventricular contraction function. It can increase the coronary artery flow, cardiac contraction force and heart rate of normal paraffin-embedded rat hearts, and increase the activity of cardiac cytoplasmic Na, K-exchange ATPase.

2) It has the effect of protecting kidney function: it can reduce the levels of endothelin-1 and lipid peroxidation substance malondialdehyde (MDA) in the blood of rats with renal ischemia-reperfusion injury, increase the activity of blood superoxide dismutase, and slow down the thickening of renal tubular basement membrane.

3) Protective effect on the liver: Scutellaria injection can improve the activities of blood cell alanine transferase and lipoic acid S-transferase, liver tissue MDA content and SOD specificity of rats with intestinal ischemia-reinjection liver injury.

4) Protective effect on lungs: It can reduce the xanthine antimicrobial and MDA content in the rabbit model of superior mesenteric artery occlusive shock lung injury, reduce the conversion of lipid peroxide (LPO), and partially inhibit the occurrence of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension.

Scutellaria injection has a significant buffering effect on nonspecific immunity and immune cells, can promote the reticulocyte conversion rate of normal people and tumor patients, enhance the cytotoxic effect of natural destructive cells, and has a significant stimulating and inducing effect on the interferon plug system. From this we can understand that the effect of Scutellaria baicalensis injection is very good.
