Traditionally used for nasal and sinus discomforts caused by colds, sinusitis, rhinitis, and allergies.
Dr. Shen's Sinus and Nose Pills are meant to address the symptomatic aspect of disease, known as the Branch. To treat the deeper, causative aspect of the disease, known as the Root, see a qualified practitioner of Chinese Medicine. For year-round or persistant allergies due to Liver Heat Rising or Liver Qi Stagnation, combine with equal amounts of Dr. Shen's Free & Easy Pills.
The chief herbs, Angelica Dahurica (Bai Zhi) and Flos Magnolia (Xin Yi Hua) unblock the sinuses and the nasal passages.
These herbs are assisted by Fr. Xanthium (Cang Er Zi), and Fr. Liquidamber (Lu Lu Tong) which mollify allergic sensitivity, while Chrysanthemum (Ju Hua) and Pueraria (Ge Gen) pacify uprising Heat and release the muscles of the head.
Adjuctive herbs Agastach Pogostemi (Huo Xiang) adjusts the dispersment of fluids, and Liguisticum Wallichi (Chuan Xiong) is used to circulate qi and blood and as a messenger to direct the formula to the head.
