What disease did Emperor Qianlong treat with antelope alchemy?
Emperor Qianlong was an emperor of the Qing Dynasty in China. During his reign, he used many drugs to treat various diseases. According to historical records, Emperor Qianlong once used antelopes to treat a disease called malaria.

According to modern medical knowledge, malaria is a parasitic disease spread by mosquitoes, and its main symptoms include fever, chills, headache and muscle pain. Antelope to monocrystal is a traditional Chinese medicine prescription, which mainly contains antelope horn, buffalo horn, artificial musk, black rhinoceros horn and so on. It has the functions of clearing away heat and toxic materials, cooling blood and promoting blood circulation, and is considered to have certain curative effect on malaria.

It should be noted that modern medicine has developed more effective malaria prevention methods, including preventive measures (such as avoiding mosquito bites) and therapeutic drugs (such as artemisinin and its derivatives). Therefore, although the prescriptions of traditional Chinese medicine in history may have certain curative effects, in today's social and medical environment, we should pay more attention to and use modern medical knowledge and drugs to prevent and treat diseases.
