Jiawei Taohong Siwu Tang

[Guest guest]

Hi Attilio & All,

 

> Does anyone know the ingredients for jia wei tao hong si wu tang?

> Attilio

 

(1) SIWU TANG has 4 Hbs (Shengdi / Shudi; Danggui; Chishao/Baishao; Chuanxiong)

 

(2) TAOHONG SIWU TANG = Siwu Tang + Taoren; Honghua, i.e. has 6 Hbs (Shengdi /

Shudi; Danggui; Chishao/Baishao; Chuanxiong; Taoren; Honghua)

 

(3) TAOHONG SIWU TANG JIAWEI has same 6 Hbs as Taohong Siwu Tang (Shengdi /

Shudi; Danggui; Chishao/Baishao; Chuanxiong; Taoren; Honghua ) + selections from

Baimaogen, Baizhi, Baizhu, Chaihu, Chenpi, Chuanshanjia, Danshen, Meiguihua,

Muhudie,

Niuxi, Qiancaogen, Shengma, Xiangfu, Zicao.

 

(4) TAOHONG SIWU TANG JIAJIAN = TAOHONG SIWU TANG minus Shengdi / Shudi +

Biejia, Chuanshanjia, Danshen, Ezhu, Foshou, Jixueteng , XIangfu, Zhigancao

 

Some examples from WWW are below but I had not time to research them in depth:
