Lianhuaqingwen exerts anti-viral and anti-inflammatory activity against novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2)
The latest research by the team of Zhong Nanshan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, believes that Lianhua Qingwen shows anti-new coronavirus in vitro tests. February 2020 Lianhua Qingwen Capsules (Particles) was included in the "New Coronavirus Pneumonia Diagnosis and Treatment Program (Sixth Edition)" by the National Health Commission
The related paper is entitled "Lianhuaqingwen exerts anti-viral and anti-inflammatory activity against novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2)", which has been approved by Journal (Pharmacological Research) accepted. The paper mentions that Lianhua Qingwen has a broad-spectrum antiviral and immunomodulatory effect on a series of influenza viruses as a prescription for traditional Chinese medicine. Lianhua Qingwen significantly inhibited SARS-COV-2 replication, affected virus morphology and exerted anti-inflammatory activity in vitro. This shows that Lianhua Qingwen can resist virus attacks and is expected to become a new strategy for controlling COVID-19 disease.

新的冠状病毒肺炎属于TCM流行类别。金银花既甜又冷，并且有三千年的流行病预防和治疗。自远古时代以来，它一直是主要流行病的首选。现代研究证明，金银花具有广谱抗病毒作用。
The team of Professor Zhang Chenyu of Nanjing University found that the miRNA rich in honeysuckle extract has the potential to target and inhibit new coronaviruses, which can be used for the early prevention and treatment of new coronaviruses. Subsequent studies have shown that MIR2911 in honeysuckle has binding sites in various viral genomes such as Ebola virus, Zika virus, African swine fever virus, Middle East respiratory fever virus and porcine rotavirus, which can inhibit the replication of these viruses.
成分中的Forsythia具有清除热量和排毒，减少肿胀和松弛的作用，自古以来就被称为“疮神圣医学”。Forsythia Sustensa也具有广谱抗菌作用。Forsythia酚和挥发性油是其抗菌活性的主要成分，尤其是它对多种致病细菌（例如金黄色葡萄球菌，肺炎球菌），各种痢疾杆菌具有强大的抑制作用；Forsythia supstensa的提取物还对Coxsackie B病毒和流感病毒以及抗炎和抗染料作用具有一定的抑制作用。
Houttuynia cordata是一种常用的传统中药，其功能可以清除热量和排毒，消除碳纤维和清除脓液以及利尿剂透析。它可用于肺癌（肺脓肿），胸痛，咳嗽，脓液和血液，肺热咳嗽，痰液和Qi以及热毒酸痛Carbuncle，潮湿的热综合症等。
Modern research has proved that Houttuynia cordata has good anti-inflammatory activity and can be used to treat respiratory tract infections; animal experiments have shown that Houttuynia cordata essential oil has a certain inhibitory effect on influenza virus. However, there is currently no definite evidence, especially no clinical trials to prove that Houttuynia cordata has a preventive effect on 2019-nCoV acute respiratory disease (new coronavirus-infected pneumonia).
Banlangen has the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying, cooling blood, suitable for heat diseases such as wind-heat cold, sore throat and so on, and has a certain anti-viral effect. However, the new coronavirus is mainly based on wet evil, so from the pharmacological point of view, isatis is not suitable for early prevention, and there is no clear evidence that isatis is effective in preventing new coronaviruses.
Diammonium glycyrrhizinate is an extract of traditional Chinese medicine licorice. Its molecular structure is similar to steroid hormones. It can increase the activity of endogenous and exogenous glucocorticoids, inhibit excessive immune responses, and also protect the liver. It can suppress the excessive immune response and liver damage caused by the new coronavirus.
To effectively prevent the occurrence of new coronary pneumonia, it is recommended to avoid going out in crowded places. At the same time, you should pay attention to personal hygiene, wash your hands frequently, wear a mask, use sneezing or coughing to cover your mouth and nose with tissues or elbows, and at the same time, avoid contact and Fasting wild animals. If you have fever, cough and other symptoms, you should be vigilant, take good isolation and protection measures, and go to the fever clinic in time for medical treatment.
