Traditional Uses

In TCM practice, Tian Zhu Huang is traditionally associated with clearing heat and resolving phlegm, and with calming convulsions and the spirit. It has historically been included in classical formulas for children's fever-related restlessness and phlegm-heat conditions, often paired with herbs such as Huang Lian, Zhu Ru, or Jiang Can. It is typically used in powder or pill form rather than long decoction.
