AE By Blue Poppy

AE By Blue Poppy is a modification of the classical Bi Qiu Tang (Sniveling Nose Decoction) created by Dr. Wei Zi-zhang of the Guangxi College of Chinese Medicine First Affiliated Hospital. This formula addresses patterns of wind evils taking advantage of defensive qi not securing due to spleen and possible kidney vacuity with deep-lying phlegm rheum. The formulation has been modified with Dry Rhizoma Zingiberis substituting for Herba Asari Cum Radice and includes optional ingredients for both clear, runny nose and nasal congestion.
