Functions and Effects of Diuretic Octet Powder:
It is carefully formulated with various herbs including Poria (Fuling), Alisma (Zexie), Polyporus (Zuling), Plantago Seed (Cheqianzi), Akebia Stem (Mutong), Talcum (Huashi), Knotgrass (Bianxu), and Dianthus (Qumai). These herbs, each with its own characteristics, work synergistically to clear heat, promote diuresis, reduce edema, and detoxify, primarily treating symptoms such as internal retention of water-dampness and difficult urination.
Its core function is to promote the excretion of water from the body. It has good therapeutic effects on conditions such as dark and scanty urine, frequent and urgent urination, and edema caused by downward infiltration of damp-heat. Among them, Poria, Alisma, and Polyporus help to strengthen the spleen and promote diuresis; Plantago Seed and Akebia Stem are effective in clearing heat and removing dampness; Knotgrass and Dianthus can promote urination and relieve urinary discomfort; and Talcum serves to clear heat and detoxify.
These herbs work together not only to enhance diuretic effects but also to regulate the balance of damp-heat within the body, effectively alleviating discomfort caused by damp-heat.
