It absorbs the qi of wood and earth, drinks wind and dew; its qi is clear and empty. Therefore, it mainly treats ailments caused by wind-heat. It also treats hoarseness and infant night crying, taking advantage of the meaning that it cries during the day and rests at night.
Contraindicated in cases of deficiency-cold syndrome of smallpox and measles.
Taste pungent, nature neutral, non-toxic. Enters the Lung meridian.
(Clears) the Lung, treating wheezing, cough, and aphonia; resolves heat, treating sore throat and epistaxis (nosebleed), which can be cured. Applied externally to various sores, it also dissipates blood stasis.

Also known as Arctii Fructus (Niu Bang Zi), also known as E Shi. Taste pungent, nature neutral, non-toxic. Enters the Lung meridian.

Zhe Bei Mu reduces swelling, especially swelling in the upper body, with very rapid effects. For nodules and swollen, purulent conditions in the throat, mouth, tongue, gums, lips, cheeks, neck, and nasal cavity, it can all be dissipated.

Although She Gan can drain heat, it cannot tonify Yin. Therefore, *Mingyi Bie Lu* states: "Long-term use causes deficiency; it is strictly forbidden for those who are deficient."
