Guest guest Posted July 4, 2003 Report Share Posted July 4, 2003 All, Our school pharmacy put in an order for some relatively obscure medicinals, and one of the ones we got was not what we ordered. Next week we can call the company, but I was wondering if anyone on the list had any information on what the package calls "Herba Tau Sze Kon." It looks like wood chips. I did not do the ordering myself, and I do not know which medicinal this was substituted for. Any info would be appreciated. Also, a previous herbalist who used to work at the school (and is no longer available for comment) left behind something that the package called "Qi Ye E Zi Hua" if I remember correctly, which someone else said should be, I believe, "Qi Ye Yi Zi Hua." All I ever found on it was that it was "Rhizoma Bistortae," but now I am told that is not correct. I can't find any more info on this. Does anyone know anything about this medicinal, please? Thank you in advance for your attention to this. So we have at least two medicinals in our pharmacy we don't know anything about but some rather questionable Chinese names.

Guest guest Posted July 4, 2003 Report Share Posted July 4, 2003 Joseph, You have a little typo in your pin yin, it's Qi Ye Yi Zhi Hua ( ¼·³ð°ì»Þ ²Ö ), or 'Seven Leaf One Flower'. We had this in our school pharmacy, but only used it rarely. A google search shows it to be 'Rhizona paridis root' and seems to be most often used in cancer treatments and is a bit toxic. Have no idea about the first one... looks like Wade-Giles (yuck..). It could be 'Tao Zi' something. Kon could be a typo too... gee.. ever see any typo's on Chinese packaging??? ;-) Hope that helps, Geoff -------- acugrpaz Re: Tau Sze Kon and Qi Ye Yi Zi Hua All, Our school pharmacy put in an order for some relatively obscure medicinals, and one of the ones we got was not what we ordered.
