In TCM, herbs are combined together in a specific proportion to treat disease efficiently with low side effects. This is exemplified with the herb formula that contains Ma Huang as the most effect herb to treat asthma. In the West, Ma Huang is used alone and in relatively high doses, which is prone to cardiovascular side effects.
