 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 9 On Chinese medicine in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis therapy [Keywords:] Traditional Chinese medicine therapy of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, Fei Wei Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, IPF) is a kind of unknown cause, in order to diffuse alveolar inflammation and alveolar structural disorder and eventually lead to interstitial lung disease characterized by fibrosis. At present, IPF is still the treatment of glucocorticoid mainly hormones and immunosuppressive agents. Although hormones can inhibit the inflammatory and immune processes, and to the main lesion of alveolitis in patients with IPF may be effective, but in a wide range of interstitial fibrosis is useless. this disease from the lungs many chronic disease lung injury, the course of time to evolve from, are Chinese “Fei Wei”, the innate endowment is weak, acquired disorders, lung and spleen deficiency, blood stasis and phlegm coagulation is the key to the pathogenesis of this disease. evil heat injured lung, both Qi and Yin true, the initial cause of delayed healing is fibrosis, yang deficiency, blood stasis Tanning outcome is fibrosis, lung and spleen kidney, lung cloud Stagnation is the performance of late fibrosis. For now, the disease simple treatment with Western medicine or Chinese medicine are not ideal, but on the basis of conventional therapy in Western medicine with Chinese medicine is able to achieve a certain effect. The author is described below. Treating type 1 stage 1.1 alveolitis of Whatever the cause as pulmonary fibrosis, the majority of disease at the beginning of a alveolitis have been, this is the early stages of the disease. At this point the lung parenchyma has not been damage, only showed a variety of inflammatory cells within the alveolar septum, and beginning to see alveolar wall thickening, alveolar cavity deformation. pathologic changes of this stage is still reversible. Thus, prompt treatment of alveolitis t
