Xiao Chai Hu Wan - Black Pearl Minor Bupleurum Formula pill 35g
Indications:
Common cold or influenza with lingering low grade fever, chronic fatigue syndrome, post viral debility, bronchitis, tonsillitis, otitis media, cholecystitis, gastritis, duodenitis, hepatitis, puerperal fever, acute sinusitis.
Signs & Symptoms:
Alternating episodes of fever and chills, lingering low-grade fever, distending discomfort or pain in the chest and hypochondriac region, bitter taste in the mouth, dry throat, dizziness, swollen lymph nodes, fatigue and increased sensitivity to cold. When Gallbladder Qi invades the Stomach, symptoms may include irritability, heartburn, nausea, vomiting and poor appetite. The tongue is typically normal with a thin white coating, and the pulse is often wiry. These features are consistent with Shao Yang stage disharmony or Gallbladder Qi invading the Stomach.
Actions of the Main Herbs:
Chai Hu (Bupleurum root) harmonises and releases the Shao Yang, soothes the Liver, and helps regulate Qi in the Gallbladder channel.
Huang Qin (Scutellaria root) clears Heat, drains Fire, and helps resolve pathogenic Heat in the Shao Yang stage.
Ban Xia (Pinellia tuber) harmonises the Stomach, redirects rebellious Qi downward, and helps relieve nausea and vomiting.
Dang Shen (Codonopsis root) tonifies Spleen and Lung Qi, supports digestion, and helps strengthen the body's normal Qi.
Gan Cao (Licorice root) tonifies Qi, harmonises the Middle Jiao, and moderates the actions of the other herbs.
Sheng Jiang (Fresh ginger rhizome) warms and harmonises the Stomach, assists the downward movement of Stomach Qi, and helps reduce nausea.
Da Zao (Jujube fruit) tonifies the Spleen and Stomach, nourishes Qi, and harmonises the formula.
Together, these herbs harmonise and release the Shao Yang, clear Heat, regulate Qi, harmonise the Gallbladder and Stomach, and support the body's normal Qi. The formula is traditionally used when a pathogenic factor remains between the Exterior and Interior, or when Gallbladder disharmony affects the Stomach.
