Placenta pills

[Guest guest]

Dear Group,

 

A new patient's CC is allergic rhinitis for 7 years duration (45

years old). It started when she worked for a couple years in a dusty

and heavily air conditioned place. She recently completed a graduate

degree, with attendant stress. She presents with a floating, rapid,

and excess (wiry, slippery)pulse. Her tongue is bright red, no coat

(but some moisture), with ice floe cracks. She has used prescription

antihistamines for 7 years, and a steroidal inhaler to sleep since a

lingering flu last winter. She has other signs of sp, kidney and wei

qi xu, mild liv qi stagnation.

 

Considering herbs for her, I come on he che da zao wan, placenta

great fortifying pill. It seems very apropo for her. (see Macciocia,

Practice of Chinese Med., p.159)

Ingredients are:

Gui Ban

Shu Di

Dang Shen

Huang Bo

Du Zhong

Zi He Che

Niu Xi

Tian Men Dong

Mai Men Dong

Fu Ling

Sha Ren

 

As has been pointed out here, trade in products with human tissue is

regulated, and while this patent made in the PRC appears to be

available from some sources, it is probably illegal. Can anyone

suggest a formula available as a tab/cap/granule that is comparable

to this one?

 

I understand that Exterior resolving herbs may be needed also, but

the deficiency is glaring and needs to be addressed.

Thanks,

Tom Hurrle
