Jing Tang Han Lian Cao Chinese Herbal Formula for Dogs, Cats, and Horses

Veterinary Authorization Required for TCVM Herbal Formulas - TCVM Pet Supply

Recommended by holistic veterinarians, Jing Tang Han Lian Cao is a Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) formula that cools Blood, stops bleeding, clears Dampness, transforms Phlegm, and tonifies Qi and Yang to address complex multi-pattern presentations involving Blood Heat with bleeding, Dampness and Phlegm accumulation, and underlying Qi and Yang deficiency in dogs, cats, and horses. Named for its chief herb Han Lian Cao (Eclipta), this eleven-herb Jing Tang original formula combines Blood-cooling and bleeding-stopping herbs with Dampness-clearing, Phlegm-transforming, Spleen Qi-tonifying, and Yang-tonifying agents to address both the acute Blood Heat and bleeding component and the underlying Qi and Yang deficiency that fails to contain Blood and transform Dampness. Available in concentrated powder and concentrated capsules. Stop administration immediately if the patient develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs. Dosing varies by species, body weight, and health condition; your authorizing veterinarian will determine the appropriate dose following a TCVM evaluation.

What It Supports

  • Blood cooling and bleeding stopping: Cools Blood Heat and stops bleeding by addressing the Blood Heat component of the pattern alongside the underlying Qi and Yang deficiency that fails to contain Blood within the vessels.
  • Dampness clearing: Clears Dampness from the channels and tissues, addressing the Dampness accumulation arising from Spleen Qi deficiency failing to transform and transport fluids.
  • Phlegm transformation: Transforms Phlegm accumulation arising from Dampness congealing into Phlegm when Spleen Qi and Yang are insufficient to transform fluids.
  • Qi tonification: Tonifies Spleen and Lung Qi to address the root Qi deficiency underlying both the Dampness accumulation and the failure to contain Blood within the vessels.
  • Yang tonification: Tonifies Kidney and Spleen Yang to address the Yang deficiency component of the pattern, supporting the warming and transforming functions that prevent Dampness accumulation and Blood leakage.

TCVM Principles

  • Primary action: Cool Blood and stop bleeding, clear Damp and transform Phlegm, tonify Qi and Yang.
  • Warning: Stop administration immediately if the patient develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs.
  • Classical antecedent: Han Lian Cao (a Jing Tang original formula).

Available Forms

  • 90g Concentrated Powder: Highly concentrated granule format; mix into food for easy daily administration. Comes with a double-sided scoop (large scoop holds approximately 1.2g; small scoop holds approximately 0.4g). One 90g concentrated supply lasts approximately 2 weeks at standard dosing.

Active Ingredient TCVM Actions

Han Lian Cao is an eleven-herb Jing Tang original formula combining Blood-cooling and bleeding-stopping herbs with Dampness-clearing, Phlegm-transforming, Spleen Qi-tonifying, and Yang-tonifying agents to address complex multi-pattern presentations of Blood Heat with bleeding, Dampness and Phlegm accumulation, and underlying Qi and Yang deficiency:

  • Han Lian Cao (Eclipta prostrata), Eclipta herb: The namesake chief herb; cools Blood, stops bleeding, and nourishes Liver and Kidney Yin; the primary Blood-cooling and bleeding-stopping herb, addressing the Blood Heat and bleeding component of the pattern while also nourishing the Yin that underlies the Blood Heat.
  • Xian He Cao (Agrimonia pilosa), Agrimony herb: Stops bleeding, astringes, and tonifies Qi; works with Han Lian Cao as the primary bleeding-stopping pair, with the additional action of tonifying Qi to support the Spleen's function of containing Blood within the vessels.
  • Yin Yang Huo (Epimedium brevicornu), Epimedium herb: Tonifies Kidney Yang, strengthens the sinews and bones, and dispels Wind-Cold-Damp; the primary Yang-tonifying herb addressing the Kidney and Spleen Yang deficiency component of the pattern. Its co-presence with the Blood-cooling herbs reflects the formula's strategy of addressing both the acute Blood Heat and the underlying Yang deficiency simultaneously.
  • Suo Yang (Cynomorium songaricum), Cynomorium stem: Tonifies Kidney Yang, nourishes Jing and Blood, and strengthens the sinews and bones; works with Yin Yang Huo as the primary Yang-tonifying pair, providing Yang support within the Blood-cooling and Dampness-clearing base.
  • Dang Shen (Codonopsis pilosula), Codonopsis root: Tonifies Spleen and Lung Qi and nourishes Blood; the primary Qi-tonifying herb addressing the Spleen Qi deficiency underlying both the Dampness accumulation and the failure to contain Blood within the vessels.
  • Bai Zhu (Atractylodes macrocephala), White atractylodes rhizome: Tonifies Spleen Qi, dries Dampness, and supports the Spleen's transforming and transporting functions; works with Dang Shen as the primary Spleen Qi-tonifying and Dampness-drying pair.
  • Shan Yao (Dioscorea opposita), Chinese yam rhizome: Tonifies Spleen, Lung, and Kidney Qi and Yin, and astringes Essence; supports the Qi-tonifying herbs and bridges the Qi-tonifying and Yang-tonifying actions of the formula while also astringing to support the bleeding-stopping herbs.
  • Tu Fu Ling (Smilax glabra), Smilax rhizome: Clears Heat, resolves toxins, and drains Dampness, particularly from the lower Jiao and skin; the primary Dampness-clearing and toxin-resolving herb, addressing the Dampness and Heat-toxin component of the pattern in the lower Jiao and skin channels.
  • Bi Xie (Dioscorea hypoglauca), Dioscorea rhizome: Separates the clear from the turbid, drains Dampness, and clears Damp-Heat from the lower Jiao; works with Tu Fu Ling as the primary lower Jiao Dampness-clearing pair, addressing turbid Dampness and Damp-Heat in the lower body channels.
  • Hu Zhang (Polygonum cuspidatum), Bushy knotweed rhizome: Clears Heat, resolves toxins, invigorates Blood, and transforms Phlegm; addresses the Heat-toxin and Phlegm component of the pattern and supports the Blood-invigorating action alongside the bleeding-stopping herbs.
  • Jie Geng (Platycodon grandiflorum), Platycodon root: Opens the Lung, transforms Phlegm, and acts as a messenger herb to guide the formula's actions upward and distribute them through the channels; supports the Phlegm-transforming action of the formula and helps distribute the herbs to the Lung and upper Jiao.

Potential Drug Interactions

Han Lian Cao contains Blood-cooling and bleeding-stopping herbs (Han Lian Cao, Xian He Cao) alongside Yang-tonifying herbs (Yin Yang Huo, Suo Yang), Spleen Qi-tonifying herbs (Dang Shen, Bai Zhu, Shan Yao), and Dampness-clearing herbs (Tu Fu Ling, Bi Xie, Hu Zhang) that may interact with certain medications. Stop administration immediately if the patient develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs. Pets on prescription medications should use this formula under veterinary supervision, as herb-drug interaction research in dogs and cats remains limited.

Medication categories warranting extra caution include anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications, hormone-modulating drugs, immunosuppressive medications, and pets managing multiple concurrent prescriptions. The manufacturer recommends use as needed for 3 to 6 months until the problem has cleared. Your veterinarian can determine appropriateness based on your pet's condition, current medications, and laboratory results.

Frequently Asked Questions

What conditions is Han Lian Cao used for in TCVM?

Han Lian Cao is most commonly recommended for dogs, cats, and horses with complex multi-pattern TCVM presentations involving Blood Heat with bleeding, Dampness and Phlegm accumulation, and underlying Qi and Yang deficiency, where the Spleen Qi and Yang deficiency has led to both failure to contain Blood within the vessels and failure to transform and transport fluids, resulting in Dampness and Phlegm accumulation alongside Blood Heat and bleeding signs. Holistic veterinarians frequently prescribe it for pets with multi-pattern presentations requiring simultaneous Blood cooling, Dampness clearing, and Qi and Yang tonification. The manufacturer lists no contraindications for this formula.

How is Han Lian Cao administered, and what are the recommended doses?

Dosing varies by species, body weight, and health condition; your authorizing veterinarian will determine the appropriate dose following a TCVM evaluation. For dogs and cats using 0.5g concentrated capsules, the general 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 is typical when that format is available. For the 90g concentrated powder, the dose for dogs and cats is 0.1g to 0.25g per 10 to 20 lbs twice daily, with the small scoop holding approximately 0.4g and the large scoop holding approximately 1.2g. For horses, the standard dose is 3g (approximately 2.5 large scoops) twice daily. Stop administration immediately if the patient develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs. The manufacturer recommends use as needed for 3 to 6 months until the problem has cleared. 

Why does Han Lian Cao contain both Blood-cooling herbs and Yang-tonifying herbs?

The co-presence of Blood-cooling herbs (Han Lian Cao, Xian He Cao) and Yang-tonifying herbs (Yin Yang Huo, Suo Yang) in the same formula reflects the complex multi-pattern nature of the conditions this formula addresses. In TCVM, Blood Heat with bleeding can arise not only from excess Heat but also from Qi and Yang deficiency failing to contain Blood within the vessels. When Yang deficiency is the root cause of both Dampness accumulation and the failure to contain Blood, addressing only the Blood Heat without tonifying the underlying Yang provides incomplete treatment. The formula's strategy is to cool the Blood Heat and stop the bleeding acutely while simultaneously tonifying the Qi and Yang that root the pattern, preventing recurrence. Your holistic veterinarian will assess whether this multi-pattern formula is appropriate for your pet's specific presentation.

Can Han Lian Cao be combined with other TCVM formulas or medications?

Han Lian Cao is sometimes used alongside other TCVM formulas as part of a comprehensive multi-pattern support protocol, but your authorizing veterinarian should always guide combination use. If your pet is on prescription medications, particularly anticoagulants or hormone-modulating medications, your veterinarian will evaluate whether Han Lian Cao is appropriate based on your pet's full health picture and current treatment plan.
