067 XIAO CHAI HU TANG WAN

Main Focus (Traditionally Described Indications):

• Discomfort in the rib or hypochondriac area, general fatigue

• Alternating sensations of heat and cold, restlessness, emotional tension

• Digestive discomfort such as upper abdominal burning, unexplained nausea, reduced appetite

Formula Profile (According to Traditional Chinese Medicine):

This traditional herbal formula is associated with harmonizing the Shao Yang stage – an intermediate zone that is neither fully internal nor external. According to classical TCM texts, this area can become "locked," often leading to shifting or unclear patterns of discomfort. The formula combines herbs traditionally used to support the regulation of Qi, ease constraint, and promote internal balance.

Traditional Use and Context:

Historically, this combination has been applied in cases where both internal and external symptoms appear simultaneously or fluctuate. It is linked in TCM to the functional regulation of the gallbladder, liver, spleen, and stomach. The formula is also referenced in situations where discomfort persists or reoccurs, in both adults and children. In some traditional contexts, it is combined with other formulas, such as formula no. 007, for broader support.

Recommended Use (Traditional Administration):
8 pills, 3 times daily
