Antipsychotic-induced constipation is a common adverse drug reaction in psychiatry, and is more severe among long-term hospitalized patients. In psychiatric practice, oral laxatives,such as rhubarb preparations, aloe preparations, and mosapride, are commonly used to manage such constipation. However, these methods fail to address the root cause of the issue. In recent years, with the development of specialized traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) departments for mental disorders across various regions, more TCM practitioners have involved in the treatment of psychiatric diseases. Based on clinical observation to chronically hospitalized patients with mental disorders, relevant studies suggest that long-term use of antipsychotic drugs leads to the formation of "drug toxicity", which is considered the primary etiology of antipsychotic-induced constipation. Classical theories and literature suggest that drug toxicity affects the patient's physical condition in three stages, leading to pathological changes and gradually worsening constipation. In the early stage, drug toxicity damages qi and blocks the qi movement, leading to dysfunction of the large intestine's transmission and the stagnation of fu-organ qi. In the middle stage, the toxicity transforms into heat, which accumulates internally, consumes body fluids, and causes intestinal dryness due to fluid depletion, further obstructing the descent of fu-organ qi. In the late stage, it affects kidney yin,fluids of the zang-fu organs are consumed, yin deficiency involves yang, leading to deficiency of both yin and yang. This ultimately results in kidney deficiency and essence depletion, with loss of normal downward purgative function. Based on this etiological and pathological analysis, current TCM treatment approaches often include oral decoctions and external therapies such as acupuncture, acupoint application, auricular plaster therapy, and TCM herbal packs,which have demonstrated definite clinical efficacy. This study systematically reviews literature on TCM theories and treatments of antipsychotic-induced constipation in the past five years, summarizes relevant research progress to provide more prescription insights and therapeutic options for clinicians.
