Zhibai Dihuang Wan is a traditional Chinese herbal formula primarily used for nourishing yin to supplement the kidneys and clearing heat to cool the blood. This formula consists of herbs including Rehmannia glutinosa, Chinese yam, Alisma orientale, tree peony bark, Anemarrhena asphodeloides, and Platycladus orientalis seed. Its main functions include nourishing kidney yin and regulating the balance of yin and yang within the body. It is suitable for various symptoms caused by kidney yin deficiency, such as soreness and weakness of the lower back and knees, dizziness, tinnitus, insomnia, and frequent dreams. Zhibai Dihuang Wan also has effects of clearing internal heat and reducing fire symptoms, thereby relieving conditions such as dry mouth and throat, tidal fever, night sweats, and skin itching caused by excessive internal heat due to yin deficiency. By regulating heat and dampness within the body, it helps alleviate physical discomfort. Additionally, Zhibai Dihuang Wan demonstrates certain therapeutic effects in treating urinary problems such as frequent urination and urgency caused by kidney yin deficiency. The primary ingredients in the formula effectively support kidney function, enhance urinary excretion, and regulate urine composition, thus helping to relieve urinary discomfort.
