bubble_chart Formula Principles

This prescription treats chronic dysentery caused by the decline of spleen and kidney yang qi. In the formula, red halloysite, which astringes the intestines to prevent collapse, serves as the sovereign; dried ginger, which warms the middle and dispels cold, serves as the minister; and rice, which nourishes the stomach and harmonizes the middle, serves as the assistant and envoy, aiding red halloysite and dried ginger to strengthen the intestines and stomach. The combination of these herbs collectively achieves the effect of warming the middle and astringing the intestines.

bubble_chart Modern Application

Currently used for dysentery late stage [third stage], cold-damage disease with intestinal bleeding, chronic enteritis, ulcer disease, leukorrhea, and other conditions characterized by spleen-kidney yang deficiency.
