bubble_chart Formula Principles
In the formula, Japanese Thistle Herb, Small Thistle, Lotus Leaf, India Madder Root, and Lalang Grass Rhizome all have the ability to cool blood and stop bleeding; Windmill Palm Bark and Platycladus have astringent properties and are particularly effective in stopping bleeding. Since the condition being treated is due to excessive liver and stomach fire causing reckless blood movement, Gardenia is added to clear and purge the fire from the liver and gallbladder; Rhubarb Rhizome directs the heat downward, counteracting its upward surge. When used together with Rhubarb Rhizome, Moutan Cortex (Tree Peony Bark) includes blood-stasis-dispersing agents within the fire-reducing components, ensuring that bleeding stops without leaving stasis. Moreover, this formula is used by charring the ingredients to preserve their properties, which enhances their hemostatic effect. Taking it with Lotus Root Juice or Radish Juice ground with Jing Ink is also aimed at strengthening the blood-cooling function.
