Explanation
This formula addresses retention of Wind and Damp-Heat in the skin and it occurs against a background of a deficiency of the Wei-Qi systems of the Lungs and Kidneys.
The formula is aimed primarily at resolving Damp-Heat and eliminating Wind from the skin and it therefore addresses primarily the Manifestation (Biao). However, it does contain Bei Sha Shen Radix Glehniae and Tu Si Zi Semen Cuscutae to address the Root (Ben), i.e. the deficiency of the Wei systems of Lungs and Kidneys.
