Abstract
A Chinese herb pharmaceutical composition for treating tumor is disclosed, wherein the composition is prepared by a predetermined amount of Common Selfheal, and a predetermined amount of Radixscrophulariae.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

1. Field of Invention


The present invention relates to manufacturing method and use of pharmaceutical composition, and more particularly to a Chinese herb composition and the manufacturing method of such for treating parodied gland tumor, cerebrum and renal cyst.


2. Description of Related Arts


For years, scientists have been seeking effective drugs for treating tumors with minimized side effects. Conventionally, surgery or γ-knife stereo tactic radiotherapy are preferred options for treating tumors. However, the subsequent radiotherapy, chemotherapy and radiotherapy would generate considerable side effects as well as unbearable suffering for patients. Needless to say, how to overcome such side effects has became a long time challenge within the art worldwide. On the other hand, traditional Chinese medicine therapy have been proven with huge advantage on much much-reduced side effects in treating tumors and cancers, and more importantly with low costs.


Recently, it is witnessed that some traditional Chinese medicine been disclosed for treating tumors and cancers, such as Chinese Patent Publication 96105287.2 detailed Chinese herb composition for treating cancers, such composition comprises Chinesis herb Prunella, Scrophulariaceae with a total of 45 medicinal herbs; what is more, Chinese Patent Publication 94110526 has disclosed a kind of drug for treating thyroid cancer, wherein such drug contains at least six Chinese herbs including Common Selfheal and Radixscrophulariae.


Nevertheless, a major drawback of traditional Chinese herb medicine is that the formulas are too complicated and too many sorts of herbs would be involved. Until now, there are no clear boundaries between treating effects of different herbs. In other words, some herbs would cause side effects or unnecessary burdens to certain organs. Therefore, too many herbs within a Chinese herb composition would cause some unnecessary burdens to the patients.


It would be highly desirable to develop a kind of Chinese herb composition for treating tumors as well as cancers, wherein such Chinese herb composition would involve much less herb combination to an acceptable extent.


SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

Accordingly, a main object of the present invention is to provide a Chinese herb pharmaceutical composition for the treating tumors, wherein such composition would generate as less side effects as possible.


Another object of the present invention is to provide a low-cost, easy-to-manufacture, and easy-to-market Chinese herb pharmaceutical composition for treating tumors.


Another object of the present invention is to provide a Chinese herb pharmaceutical composition for treating parodied gland tumor, encephaloma and renal cyst, wherein such composition consists less herb combinations.


Another object of the present invention is to provide a Chinese herb pharmaceutical composition for treating parodied gland tumor, encephaloma and renal cyst, wherein Common Selfheal and Radixscrophulariae are used together as a tumor cell propagation inhibitor for curing the tumor.


Another object of the present invention is to provide a Chinese herb pharmaceutical composition for treating parodied gland tumor, encephaloma and renal cyst, wherein the inflammation could be significantly reduced.


Accordingly, in order to accomplish the above objects, the present invention provides a Chinese herb pharmaceutical composition for treating parodied gland tumor, cerebrum, and renal cyst, wherein the composition comprises a predetermined amount of common selfheal and a predetermined amount of Radixscrophulariae.

FIG. 2 is an illustration of herb common selfheal (known in Chinese as Xia Ku Cao) in natural form.







DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

The present invention provides a Chinese herb pharmaceutical composition for treating parodied gland tumor, encephaloma and renal cyst, wherein the composition is selected from an herb group consisting of Common Selfheal and Radixscrophulariae.


A predetermined amount of Common Selfheal and Radixscrophulariae are selected for preparing the composition. Preferably, the weight ratio of Common Selfheal is ranged from 93.75% to 95.9% within the composition and the weight ratio of Radixscrophulariae is ranged betveen 4.1% to 6.25%.


According to Chinese pharmacology, Seltheal (known as Chinese herb Xia ku cao) is of cold property and tasted bitter, functioned for lowering stomach fever, curing hypertention, headache, dizziness, wherein the Common Selfheal is provided for cold, bitter, lowering stomach fever, curing hypertension, headache and dizziness, eyes sensitivity to light, tears, painful at night, breast illness, and lowering blood pressure.

It is functioned for cooling blood, promoting Yin, cleaning toxin and heat, soothing the throat, and treating eyes sensitivity to lights, tears, and so on.


According to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the pharmaceutical composition further comprises one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients or one or more additional active pharmaceutical ingredients.


EXAMPLES

The present invention will be further described by way of examples, which however should not be construed as limiting the invention.


Example 1

Pills Preparation


The respective ingredients, Common Selfheal and Radixscrophulariae are prepared according to the predetermined weight ratios. For instance, the weights of extract ingredients drawn from respective medical herbs per g of a pill preparation in the form of powders or granules are: Common Selfheal, 38 g; and Radixscrophulariae, 2 g.


Example 2

Capsules Preparation


The respective ingredients, Common Selfheal and Radixscrophulariae are prepared according to the predetermined weight ratios for treating parodied gland tumor, encephaloma and renal cyst: The weights of extract ingredients drawn from respective medical herbs per g of a capsules preparation in the form of powders or granules are: Common Selfheal, 35 g; and Radixscrophulariae, 1.5 g. First of all, Selfheal and Radixscrophulariae are mixed and grinded, afterwards, such mixture are filtered through a 40-mesh sieve to be applied into capsules.


Example 3
