The traditional Chinese medicine composition is prepared from, by weight, 27-33 parts of radix adenophorae, 27-33 parts of radix glehniae, 9-15 parts of radix asparagi, 9-15 parts of radix ophiopogonis, 3-9 parts of lycium chinense, 9-15 parts of herba dendrobii, 27-33 parts of radix sophorae tonkinensis, 9-15 parts of bittersweet herb, 9-15 parts of apricot kernels, 27-33 parts of trichosanthes kirilowii, 9-15 parts of herba scutellariae barbatae, 6-12 parts of herba agrimoniae, 27-33parts of cortex mori, 27-33 parts of black nightshade herb and 9-15 parts of semen lepidii. The invention further relates to application of the traditional Chinese medicine composition. The traditional Chinese medicine composition is obtained by combining the fifteen medicinal materials and has the functions of nourishing yin to clear away the lung-heat, ventilating the lung to resolve phlegm, clearing away heat and toxic materials and purging the lung for diuresis. For malignant pleural effusion, by purging the lung for diuresis, dampness can be removed from the external genitalia and phlegmcan be dissolved from the lungs so as to dispel pathogenic effusion. After the traditional Chinese medicine composition is taken for 8 weeks, the total effective rate of patients reaches 88.54%, the disease remission rate is 98.96%, and no obvious adverse reaction is found, which proves that the traditional Chinese medicine composition can effectively reduce pleural effusion, remit symptoms and maintain the patients' condition stable.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicines, in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating malignant pleural effusion and its application. Background technique [0002] A normal healthy person maintains 3-15ml of trace fluid in the thorax, which plays a lubricating role during breathing. Part of this trace fluid is absorbed by the capillaries in the chest cavity, and the other part is recycled by the lymphatic system. Normally, the fluid in the chest cavity is in a state of dynamic balance. When a disease occurs in the body, the dynamic balance is out of balance, resulting in too fast or slow absorption of fluid in the pleural cavity, which is clinically called pleural effusion. [0003] Malignant pleural effusions refer to pleural effusions caused by lung cancer or other malignant tumors involving the pleura or primary pleural tumors. Almost all malignant tumors except primary brain tumors...
