Abstract

Fructus Arctii, as a commonly used clinical Chinese medicine, has the effect of evacuating wind-heat, promoting the lungs to penetrate the rash, detoxifying the pharynx and so on. It is widely used in wind-heat cold, cough and phlegm, sore throat and other diseases. In recent years, new results of research on the effects of Fructus Arctii continue to appear at home and abroad, and it is found to have good therapeutic effects in anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, anti-diabetic and lipid regulation diseases, and the clinical research on its pharmacological effects is also widely carried out. This article summarizes and analyzes the new research progress of Fructus Arctii.
