Abstract：This paper sorts out Professor Zheng Shaozhou’s experience in treating multiple sclerosis from the theory of endotoxin, and the primary responsibility for the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis lies in the kidney. It is closely related to the liver and spleen. Deficiency of viscera leads to endotoxin, endogenous turbid toxin is a key factor in the pathogenesis and recurrence of multiple sclerosis. The collaterals are the transmission pathways of toxins, so the treatment of detoxification and collaterals runs through the treatment of the disease, differentiation and treatment of the internal organs, detoxify, cutting off the conversion chain of endotoxin, and treatment by stages. In the acute attack stage, it is mainly evil and excess, the main focus is to detoxify and dredge collaterals, as well as tonifying the kidney; in the chronic progression stage, deficiency is the mainstay or a mixture of deficiency and excess, aiming to balance yin and yang, replenish viscera, and dispel evil; in remission stage, deficiency of healthy qi, loss of blood yin and yang, internal poisonous evil, mixed deficiency and excess, yin and yang interlaced, treatment must focus on strengthening the body, taking into account the elimination of pathogens, adjusting the balance of yin and yang in the viscera, and fundamentally removing the internal factors of the occurrence and development of the disease. The dependent nature of toxins, treatment rules, and prescriptions have their own emphasis. The prescription is selected according to the evidence, and the case is analyzed to grasp the main line. The effect is quite good.
