AbstractIn recent years, with the progress and development of the times, our eating habits and lifestyle changes have led to an increase in gouty arthritis annually, with the main use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and other drugs. These drugs are highly dependent, resulting in an unresponsive state, which is easy to recur. Therefore, more and more patients choose traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) to treat them. After years of continuous exploration and rich clinical experience accumulation, Academician TongXiaolin put forward the dialectical strategy of "combination of state and target" in TCM. He believed that the deficiency of liver and kidney is transformed into a state, with uric acid as the target. Through the target prescription Simiao decoction to clever heat and moisture, replenishing liver and kidney, the target medicine Bixie (Dioscorea Tokoro Makino) to rheumatism, Shujin;Tufuling (Rhizoma Smilacis Glabrae) for detoxification, dehydration gas, Weilingxian (Radix et Rhizoma Clematidis) to rheumatism, pass meridians, and the combination of the condition and target achieves a good clinical effect.Copyright © 2022 the Author(s).
