Extension Angong Niuhuang Wan is the most famous emergency medicine in traditional Chinese medicine. It is mostly used for emergency treatment of stroke, hemiplegia, and pericardial invagination due to febrile diseases. It has been known as “saving emergency cases immediately and saving dying in an instant” since ancient times. It is one of the “three treasures for treating febrile diseases”. However, the dosage form of the ancient prescription is obviously not suitable for the needs of clinical emergencies. Therefore, the dosage form of this prescription has been reformed in modern times. The scarce source of bezoar is replaced by the effective ingredients of bezoar, taurocholic acid and swine bile acid, and the expensive rhinoceros horn and pearl are replaced by buffalo horn and mother-of-pearl. Cinnabar and gold foil are removed, and isatis root is added to enhance the function of clearing heat and detoxifying. Qingkailing injection is developed, which not only retains the unique efficacy of the original prescription, but also increases the clinical indications, changes oral administration to intramuscular injection or intravenous drip, makes the effect rapid, and significantly improves the efficacy. Gong, in ancient times, refers to the site of the emperor, and now refers to the pericardium. According to Chinese medicine, the heart is like a monarch in the human body, occupying a supreme position, and the pericardium is like the palace of the heart, protecting the sacredness of the heart and making it inviolable. If warm and toxic evils attack the heart, the pericardium will stand up and take the evil on behalf of the heart. In the prescription, bezoar is the monarch, which can clear the evil heat of the pericardium. “Angong” is used to describe that after taking the pill, the heart can settle in its palace. Therefore, it is named “Angong Niuhuang Pills”.
