bubble_chart Formula Principles

This formula uses turtle blood and Bupleurum to enter the meridians and regulate qi, penetrate the collaterals and benefit blood, lifting the sunken pathogenic factors of the Shaoyang. Antelope horn clears heat and soothes the liver, nourishes yin and invigorates the spirit, serving as the sovereign medicinal. Tail of Chinese Angelica and Peach Kernel break blood stasis, while green tangerine peel directs the rebellious qi downward, both acting as minister medicinals. Sichuan armor, Green Jade Powder, and fried raw rhubarb directly reach the site of stasis to attack the hardness, guiding the stagnant heat from the blood chamber to exit either through the external genitalia or the anus. The ingenuity lies in Ginseng's powerful tonification of primordial qi and Cow-Bezoar paste's ability to clear and awaken the spirit, both serving as assistant and guiding medicinals. The combination of these herbs not only harmonizes yin and yang but also significantly breaks blood stasis, making it suitable for the aforementioned condition.
