Research Progress on the Ingredients, Pharmacological Effects, and Clinical Applications of Tongmai Jiangtang Capsule

Tongmai Jiangtang Capsule (TJC) is a compound preparation that consists of 11 traditional Chinese herbs, which have the effects of clearing heat, promoting blood circulation, nourishing Yin, and alleviating heat-related conditions. Pharmacological studies have demonstrated that these herbs can enhance immune function and improve neurological function. They are often used alone or in conjunction with other pharmacological agents to manage diabetes mellitus (DM) and its coronary heart disease (CHD), cerebral infarction (CI), diabetic nephropathy (DN), diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), and arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO). This paper systematically summarizes the composition, pharmacological effects, and clinical applications of TJC in recent years. The aim is to provide support and assistance for the further research and development of this compound.
