Formula Origin

Golden Mirror of the Medical Tradition (1742 AD)

Formula Description

Wu Wei Xiao Du Yin is a 5-ingredient Chinese Medicine formula with Honeysuckle Flowers (Jin Yin Hua) as a principal ingredient.

 

Invented in 1742 AD, it belongs to the category of formulas that clear external abscesses and sores. Its main actions are: 1) clears Heat and 2) resolves Toxicity.

 

In Chinese Medicine health conditions are thought to arise due to "disharmonies" in the body as a system. These disharmonies are called "patterns" and the very purpose of herbal formulas is to fight them in order to restore the body's harmony.

 

In this case Wu Wei Xiao Du Yin is used by TCM practitioners to fight patterns like Toxic-Heat. From a Western Medicine standpoint, such patterns can give rise to a range of conditions such as abnormal vaginal discharge, multiple furuncles or carbuncles for instance.
