Qingjin Pingchuan recipe

Qingjin Pingchuan recipe is a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) herbal formula developed for the treatment of respiratory conditions, specifically severe community-acquired pneumonia (SCAP). The recipe is based on the TCM principles of clearing heat, resolving phlegm, and relieving asthma (Pingchuan). It is typically administered as an oral decoction or in granule form. Clinical research, primarily led by Shuguang Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, focuses on its ability to modulate the inflammatory response, improve oxygenation, and potentially reduce the duration of mechanical ventilation in critically ill patients. Like many TCM formulas, it is thought to exert its effects through a multi-component, multi-target mechanism involving the regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines and the protection of lung tissue from oxidative stress.
