Rhinoceros Horn is a name for a traditional Chinese medicine. It refers to the horn of a rhinoceros. The Tang Dynasty text *Yao Xing Ben Cao* (Compendium of Medicinal Properties) states that rhinoceros horn has the effects of “calming the mind, relieving severe fever, and dispelling wind toxins,” and can be used to treat conditions such as “fever as intense as fire, restlessness, toxins invading the heart, and delirious speech.” These therapeutic effects are entirely due to the cooling nature inherent in rhinoceros horn.Since rhinos are nationally protected animals, the use of rhino horn as medicine has been banned; water buffalo horn is now commonly used as a substitute.
