TCM Formulation Strategy:
Gui zhi, chai hu and da huang are the chief herbs. Gui zhi addresses the greater yang and resolves the problems in the superficial levels. Chai hua, and huang qin resolve lesser yang disorders. Da huang treats heat accumulation. Assistant herbs long gu and mu li are mineral substances that weigh down and calm the floating spirit. Ren shen and fu ling strengthen the spleen qi and protects the spleen qi. Ban xia descends qi and transforms disturbances of the fluids, working with fu ling. Sheng jiang and da zao are harmonizing envoys.
