Note

This formula is most suitable for chronic, intractable pruritic skin conditions characterized by a “full” pattern (excess syndrome), but should not be used for urticaria (such as pruritus) caused by blood deficiency complicated by wind invasion. While taking this formula, avoid meat, seafood, and spicy or wind-inducing foods. Use with caution during pregnancy.
