In fact, many countries have strict regulations on drugs, and most countries prohibit carrying three kinds of drugs, that is, drugs containing ephedrine, morphine and strychnine.
Chinese patent medicines containing ephedrine mainly include Biyan Tablet, Compound Chuanbei Zhike Syrup, Chailian Oral Liquid and Zhi Zhi Syrup. Large doses of ephedra will cause spasm, myocardial infarction and stroke.
Chinese patent medicines containing morphine mainly include Changweining, Kechuanning, Kesuiting, Keke and Xiaoerzhixieling. Morphines are banned because they may be addictive. Chinese patent medicines containing strychnine mainly include Da Die Wanhua Oil, Rheumatoid Arthritis Tablets, Guci Capsules and Arthritis Ointment. Strychnine is rarely used now because of its high toxicity and small treatment safety range.
