About this formula
Drain the Middle is a faithful rendition of Pinellia Decoction to Drain the Epigastrium (Ban Xia Xie Xin Tang), a classical formula from the Shang Han Lun. This formula addresses patterns of simultaneous excess and deficiency in the Middle Burner, combining herbs with both cold and hot natures to harmonize the complex interaction of Hot and Cold clumping together in the epigastrium.
