- Shu Di Huang (Rehmannia glutinosa, prepared) - Prepared rehmannia root: The principal Yin tonic; strongly nourishes Yin, Blood, and Essence, tonifies Liver and Kidney, and addresses the root Jing deficiency underlying leakage patterns
- Sang Piao Xiao (Mantidis ootheca) - Praying mantis egg case (animal-derived): A principal astringent herb; tonifies Kidney Yang and consolidates Jing, addressing urinary incontinence and frequent urination from Kidney deficiency at the lower Jiao level
- Jin Ying Zi (Rosa laevigata) - Cherokee rose fruit: Astringently consolidates the Kidney and stabilizes Jing; reduces urinary frequency and leakage through its strong astringent action on the lower Jiao
- Fu Pen Zi (Rubus chingii) - Chinese raspberry fruit: Tonifies Kidney Yang and astringently consolidates Jing; works with Sang Piao Xiao and Jin Ying Zi as the astringent trio to reduce excessive urination and support urinary and reproductive health
- Huang Qi (Astragalus membranaceus) - Astragalus root: Strongly tonifies Spleen and Lung Qi; supports immune function, energy, and Wei Qi, addressing the Qi deficiency component that allows leakage to occur
- Shan Zhu Yu (Cornus officinalis) - Asiatic cornelian cherry fruit: Tonifies Liver and Kidney Yin and Yang; stabilizes and binds to prevent leakage of Essence and supports reproductive and urinary function as a tonic-astringent deputy

Potential Drug Interactions

Frequently Asked Questions
What conditions is Rehmannia 11 used for in TCVM?
Rehmannia 11 is indicated in TCVM for Kidney Qi and Yin deficiency with Jing leakage patterns. Holistic veterinarians frequently recommend it for dogs, cats, and horses showing signs of urinary incontinence, excessive or frequent urination, hindquarter weakness, lumbar discomfort, fatigue, or age-related Essence depletion, particularly when accompanied by a pale or slightly red tongue and a deep, weak pulse in the rear position. No contraindications are listed for this formula.
How does Rehmannia 11 differ from Rehmannia 6?
Rehmannia 6 (Liu Wei Di Huang Wan) focuses on nourishing Kidney Yin without astringent consolidation, making it appropriate for pure Yin deficiency patterns. Rehmannia 11 adds a trio of astringent Kidney-consolidating herbs, Sang Piao Xiao, Jin Ying Zi, and Fu Pen Zi, alongside Qi tonics (Huang Qi) to address leakage patterns such as urinary incontinence and Jing depletion alongside the underlying Qi and Yin deficiency. Your authorizing veterinarian will determine which formula best matches your pet's TCVM pattern.
How is Rehmannia 11 administered, and what are the dosing guidelines?
Dosing varies by species and body weight; your authorizing veterinarian will provide specific guidance. For the 90g concentrated powder, the dose for dogs and cats is 0.1g to 0.25g per 10 to 20 lbs twice daily; the small scoop holds approximately 0.3g. For horses using the concentrated powder, the standard dose is 3g (approximately 2.5 large scoops) twice daily; the large scoop holds approximately 1.2g. For 0.5g concentrated capsules, the guideline is one capsule per 20 to 40 lbs of body weight twice daily. For small dogs and cats under 10 lbs, one 0.2g capsule once daily. Your authorizing veterinarian confirms Teapill dosing. Use for up to 6 months as directed.
How long does it take to see results with Rehmannia 11?
Response time varies depending on the severity and chronicity of the Kidney Qi, Yin, and Jing deficiency pattern. Many pet owners begin to notice improvements in urinary control, energy, and overall vitality within 4 to 8 weeks of consistent use. This formula is recommended for use up to 6 months; regular follow-up with your holistic veterinarian is recommended to monitor progress and adjust the protocol as needed.
