Description:
This herb has a similar action to that of Cang Er Zi and it also has inferior action to release exterior therefore it is not commonly used for common cold due to wind-cold without nasal stuffiness and discharge. It is an important herb to treat sinusitis, headache, nasal stuffiness, and discharge. It assists wind-cold-dispersing herbs as Cang Er Zi and Bai Zhi to relieve wind-cold and free nasal cavity; it also goes with wind-heat-dispersing and lung-heat-clearing herbs as Bo He, Ju Hua, Shi Gao, and Huang Qin.
