Experience in treating psoriasis from toxin pathogenesis by ZHAO's School in Yanjing
Psoriasis is a chronic and refractory dermatosis. In clinical practice, medical practitioners of "ZHAO's School in
Yanjing
" treat psoriasis based on the "toxin-targeting therapy" approach. It proposes that the theoretical connotation of "
Du
" encompasses three dimensions: the aggregation of pathogenic factors, aggregated pathological products, and aggregated pathological states, which are interpreted through both macroscopic and microscopic perspectives. Clinical syndrome differentiation combines local lesion assessment with holistic evaluation, categorizing psoriasis into four types: heat-toxin, dampness-toxin, stasis-toxin, and wind-toxin. The representative formulas include
Liangxue Jiedu Decoction
,
Yangxue Jiedu Decoction
, and
Huoxue Jiedu Decoction
, with therapeutic emphasis on four categories of herbs including heat-clearing and detoxifying, dampness-resolving and detoxifying, wind-dispersing and detoxifying, and detoxification-collateral activating agents. By integrating traditional syndrome differentiation with modern mechanistic research, this approach provides novel insights for the diagnosis and treatment of psoriasis in traditional Chinese medicine.
