Guest guest Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 Hi Attilio > Hi all, Does anyone know what's in Wu Mei An Wei Wan? Kind regards > Attilio Neither Google, nor " All the Web " has anything on Wu-Mei-An-Wei- Wan. I presume that it means Black Plum Calm ST Pill. There are some hits foir the HANZI characters of Wu-Mei-An-Wei. See http://tinyurl.com/d7fmn However, I cannot find the ingredients online. It almost certainly is NOT a classical formula; it probably is a modern formula but rarely used outside of mainland China. Best regards, Tel: (H): +353-(0) or (M): +353-(0) Ireland.

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2005 Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 Hi Attilio, Wu mei an wei wan is a patent pill which is really the same formula as wu mei wan from the shang han lun. The following data if from volume 5 of the old edition of the english- chinese encyclopedia of practical chinse medicine by higher education press entitled " Commonly Used Chinese Patent Medicines " . I have found this book a invaluable resource many times for patents mainly used n china that we don't have in the west. Especially when it only cost 24rmb:P Wu Mei An Wei Wan wu mei rou (fructus mume) 24% huang lian (rhizoma coptidis) 19% fu zi (radix aconiti lateralis praeparata) 7.1% gan jiang (rhizoma zingiberis) 11.9% gui zhi (ramulus cinnamomi) 7.1% dang shen (radix codonopsis pilosulae) 7.1% xi xin (herba asari) 7.1% dang gui (angelicae sinensis) 4.8% huang bai (cortex phellodendri) 7.1% hua jiao (pericarpium zanthoxyli) 4.8% Actions: removing ascaris to alleviate pain. Indications: colic caused by ascaris, interval pains of belly, deadly cold of hands and feet and vomiting of ascaris. Administration and dosage: taken orally, 9g each time, twice a day. Preparation form: water-paste pill. Package: about 2g in every 40 pills. Notes: this recipe is from the shang han lun written by zhang zhongjing. The effect of the pill is to destroy parasites and stop pain. It is clinically efficacious for biliary ascariasis.
