  1. Anti-arrhythmic effect "Jilin Chinese Medicine" 1986(6):30, this hydroalcoholic solution can resist the arrhythmia in rats caused by Aconite Main Root alkali and the arrhythmia in rabbits caused by chloroform-adrenaline Abnormalities, calcium chloride-induced arrhythmia in rats, chloroform-induced arrhythmia in mice, etc. Experiments also show that our hydroalcoholic solution has a significant attenuating effect on the normal heart rhythm of experimental animals. The reason may be that this prescription can antagonize the heart rhythm-accelerating effect of isoproterenol.
