Jing Tang Mu Dan Pi Concentrated 90g Powder

Veterinary Authorization Required for TCVM Herbal Formulas - TCVM Pet Supply

Recommended by holistic veterinarians, Jing Tang Mu Dan Pi is a Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) herbal formula that cools Blood and resolves stagnation to address the TCVM pattern of Blood-Heat with Blood stasis in dogs, cats, and horses. Named for its chief herb Mu Dan Pi (moutan bark, tree peony root bark), this four-herb formula combines the Blood-Heat-cooling and stasis-resolving action of Mu Dan Pi and Chi Shao (red peony root) with the broad Blood-invigorating and Heart Heat-clearing action of Dan Shen (salvia root) and the Qi-and-Blood-moving and Heart-opening action of Yu Jin (curcuma tuber) to provide comprehensive coverage of the Blood-Heat with Blood stasis pattern. Based on Mu Dan Pi He Ji. Available as a concentrated 90g powder. No contraindications are listed. Stop administration immediately if the patient develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs. Dosing varies by species and body weight; your authorizing veterinarian will provide specific guidance.

What It Supports

  • Blood-Heat cooling and stasis resolution: Mu Dan Pi (moutan bark) is the formula's chief Blood-Heat-cooling and stasis-resolving herb, with a bitter, acrid, and slightly cold nature and a specific affinity for the Heart, Liver, and Kidney channels; Mu Dan Pi cools Blood-Heat without causing Blood stagnation and simultaneously invigorates Blood and resolves existing stasis, making it the ideal chief herb for presentations where Blood-Heat and Blood stasis coexist; Mu Dan Pi also clears Yin-level and deficiency-type Heat from the Liver and Kidney channels, addressing the deeper Heat component of the pattern that standard Heat-clearing herbs may not reach; Chi Shao (red peony root) reinforces Mu Dan Pi's Blood-invigorating and Blood-Heat-clearing action with its own bitter and slightly cold nature and a strong stasis-resolving affinity for the Liver channel; together Mu Dan Pi and Chi Shao form the formula's primary Blood-Heat-cooling and stasis-resolving pair, addressing both the Heat driving the stasis and the stasis accumulation itself
  • Broad Blood invigoration and Heart Heat clearance: Dan Shen (salvia root) invigorates Blood, removes stasis, cools Blood, clears Heart Heat, and calms the Shen with a bitter and slightly cold nature and a specific affinity for the Heart, Pericardium, and Liver channels; Dan Shen is one of the most widely used and clinically versatile Blood-invigorating herbs in the Chinese materia medica and is specifically appropriate for Blood stasis presentations accompanied by Heat in the Blood level and Heart channel disturbance; Dan Shen broadens the formula's Blood stasis treatment from the Liver channel focus of Mu Dan Pi and Chi Shao to include Heart and Pericardium channel Blood stasis coverage; Yu Jin (curcuma tuber) invigorates Blood, moves Qi, clears Heart Heat, and opens the orifices with a acrid, bitter, and cold nature and a specific affinity for the Heart, Liver, and Gallbladder channels; Yu Jin adds an essential Qi-moving dimension to the formula's Blood-invigorating strategy, recognizing that Blood stasis in TCVM frequently coexists with and is driven by Qi stagnation; Yu Jin's Qi-moving action ensures that the formula's Blood-invigorating herbs work within a freely moving Qi framework rather than a stagnant one

Active Ingredient TCVM Actions

Mu Dan Pi is a four-herb formula based on Mu Dan Pi He Ji, organized around a Blood-Heat-cooling and stasis-resolving chief pair (Mu Dan Pi, Chi Shao), a broad Blood-invigorating and Heart Heat-clearing herb (Dan Shen), and a Qi-and-Blood-moving and Heart-opening herb (Yu Jin):

  • Chi Shao (Paeonia lactiflora) - Red peony root: Invigorates Blood, clears Blood-Heat, and dispels Blood stasis; the formula's deputy Blood-invigorating and Blood-Heat-clearing herb, with a bitter and slightly cold nature and a strong stasis-resolving affinity for the Liver channel; Chi Shao reinforces Mu Dan Pi's chief Blood-Heat-cooling and stasis-resolving action, providing additional Blood-invigorating coverage with its own specific Liver channel stasis-resolving strength; Chi Shao's paeoniflorin and paeonol constituents provide both classical TCVM Blood-invigorating and Blood-Heat-clearing action and documented anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, and antiplatelet pharmacological activity; use with caution in animals on anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications
  • Dan Shen (Salvia miltiorrhiza) - Salvia root: Invigorates Blood, removes stasis, cools Blood, clears Heart Heat, and calms the Shen; the formula's broadest-acting Blood-invigorating and Heart channel-targeting herb, with a bitter and slightly cold nature and a specific affinity for the Heart, Pericardium, and Liver channels; Dan Shen is one of the most clinically versatile Blood-invigorating herbs in the Chinese materia medica and provides the formula's primary Heart and Pericardium channel Blood stasis-resolving coverage alongside its Blood-Heat-cooling and Shen-calming action; Dan Shen's tanshinone IIA and danshenol constituents provide both classical TCVM Blood-invigorating and Heart Heat-clearing action and extensively documented cardiovascular-protective, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant pharmacological activity; use with caution in animals on anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications
  • Mu Dan Pi (Paeonia suffruticosa) - Moutan bark: Cools Blood-Heat, invigorates Blood, resolves stasis, and clears deficiency Heat; the formula's chief Blood-Heat-cooling and stasis-resolving herb and the formula's namesake, with a bitter, acrid, and slightly cold nature and a specific affinity for the Heart, Liver, and Kidney channels; Mu Dan Pi is uniquely suited as the chief herb for Blood-Heat with Blood stasis presentations because it simultaneously cools Blood-Heat and invigorates Blood, addressing both the Heat that is driving the stasis and the stasis accumulation itself without the risk of Heat-retention that purely astringing or cooling approaches can produce; Mu Dan Pi also clears deficiency-level and Yin-level Heat from the Liver and Kidney channels; Mu Dan Pi's paeonol and paeoniflorin constituents provide both classical TCVM Blood-Heat-cooling and stasis-resolving action and documented anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, antiplatelet, and antimicrobial pharmacological activity; use with caution in animals on anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications
  • Yu Jin (Curcuma aromatica) - Curcuma tuber: Invigorates Blood, moves Qi, clears Heart Heat, and opens the orifices; the formula's Qi-and-Blood-moving and Heart-opening herb, with an acrid, bitter, and cold nature and a specific affinity for the Heart, Liver, and Gallbladder channels; Yu Jin's inclusion in the formula reflects the classical TCVM understanding that Blood stasis and Qi stagnation frequently coexist and mutually reinforce each other - Blood stasis impairs Qi flow and Qi stagnation impairs Blood circulation; by adding a Qi-moving dimension to the formula's Blood-invigorating strategy, Yu Jin ensures that the Blood-moving herbs work within a freely moving Qi framework, addressing both the Blood stasis manifestation and the Qi stagnation contributing factor simultaneously; Yu Jin's curcumin and volatile oil constituents provide both classical TCVM Qi-and-Blood-moving action and documented anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, and choleretic pharmacological activity; use with caution in animals on anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications

Potential Drug Interactions

Mu Dan Pi contains multiple Blood-invigorating herbs including Mu Dan Pi, Chi Shao, Dan Shen, and Yu Jin whose paeonol, paeoniflorin, tanshinone, and curcumin constituents may affect platelet aggregation and coagulation function and may interact with anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications including warfarin, aspirin, and other NSAIDs; Dan Shen's tanshinone constituents may also interact with cardiac medications including digoxin through P-glycoprotein transport pathway effects; Yu Jin's curcumin constituent may interact with medications metabolized through cytochrome P450 pathways. The formula's cold and Blood-moving nature is consistent with the stop-immediately warning for diarrhea and vomiting, which may indicate excessive cooling of the Middle Jiao or an adverse response to the formula's Blood-moving action. Dogs, cats, and horses on prescription medications should use this formula under veterinary supervision, as herb-drug interaction research in these species remains limited.

Medication categories warranting extra caution include anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications, NSAIDs, cardiac medications, and medications metabolized through cytochrome P450 pathways. Stop administration immediately if the patient develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs. Your veterinarian can determine appropriateness based on your animal's condition, current medications, and laboratory results.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the TCVM pattern of Blood-Heat with Blood stasis that Mu Dan Pi addresses?

In TCVM theory, Blood-Heat with Blood stasis is a combined pattern where pathogenic Heat has entered the Blood level, driving Blood circulation to become both hot and stagnant simultaneously. Blood-Heat alone produces accelerated, Heat-driven bleeding or reckless Blood movement; Blood stasis alone produces fixed, obstructed accumulations of Blood that is no longer flowing freely. When Blood-Heat and Blood stasis coexist, the Heat drives pathological Blood movement while the stasis prevents normal free circulation, producing a pattern where the Blood is both agitated by Heat and obstructed by stasis at the same time. Mu Dan Pi is specifically appropriate as the chief herb for this combined pattern because its bitter, acrid, and slightly cold nature allows it to simultaneously cool the Blood-Heat and move the Blood stasis, addressing both components of the pattern in a single herb action. The formula's additional three herbs (Chi Shao, Dan Shen, Yu Jin) each contribute additional Blood-invigorating, Heat-clearing, and Qi-moving action to comprehensively treat the combined Blood-Heat and Blood stasis presentation across the Liver, Heart, Pericardium, Kidney, and Gallbladder channel system. Your authorizing veterinarian will confirm the appropriate TCVM pattern diagnosis before recommending this formula.

How is Mu Dan Pi administered, and what are the dosing guidelines?

Mu Dan Pi is available as a concentrated 90g powder that mixes into food or feed. The bottle includes a double-sided scoop: the small end holds about 0.25g, and the large end holds about 1.2g. For dogs and cats, the guideline is approximately 0.5g per 10 to 20 lbs of body weight twice daily (approximately 2 small level scoops per 10 to 20 lbs), or as directed by your veterinarian. For horses, the guideline is 3g (approximately 2.5 large level scoops) twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian. One 90g bottle lasts approximately 2 weeks. Stop administration immediately if the patient develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs. Your authorizing veterinarian will confirm the appropriate dose and duration for your animal.

Why does Mu Dan Pi include both Blood-cooling herbs and Blood-invigorating herbs, and how do they work together?

The combination of Blood-cooling herbs (Mu Dan Pi, Chi Shao) and Blood-invigorating herbs (Dan Shen, Yu Jin, and the Blood-invigorating dimension of Mu Dan Pi itself) reflects the formula's specific application for the combined Blood-Heat and Blood stasis pattern, where both components require simultaneous treatment. In classical TCVM formula strategy, using Blood-cooling herbs alone for a Blood-Heat with Blood stasis presentation risks congealing the Blood further and worsening the stasis component; using Blood-invigorating herbs alone risks driving the Heat deeper or producing additional Heat-driven pathological Blood movement. By combining Mu Dan Pi's unique simultaneous Blood-Heat-cooling and Blood-invigorating action with Chi Shao's additional Blood-invigorating and Heat-clearing coverage, Dan Shen's broad Blood stasis treatment and Heart channel action, and Yu Jin's Qi-moving and Gallbladder channel-opening action, the formula addresses the Blood-Heat root and the Blood stasis accumulation simultaneously, ensuring that the cooling action does not worsen the stasis and the moving action does not worsen the Heat, or as directed by your veterinarian.

How does Mu Dan Pi differ from other Jing Tang Blood-invigorating formulas, and when is it specifically appropriate?

Mu Dan Pi is distinguished from other Jing Tang Blood-invigorating formulas by its specific combination of Blood-Heat cooling and Blood stasis resolution in a single formula, anchored by Mu Dan Pi as the chief herb for the combined Blood-Heat with Blood stasis pattern. Blood-invigorating formulas that focus primarily on Cold-type Blood stasis (such as Shao Fu Zhu Yu, which uses warming herbs alongside Blood-invigorating herbs) are appropriate when Cold obstruction is the primary driver of Blood stasis; Mu Dan Pi is most specifically appropriate when the Blood stasis presentation is accompanied by or driven by Blood-Heat rather than Cold. The additional Heart and Pericardium channel coverage from Dan Shen and Yu Jin makes the formula particularly appropriate for Blood stasis and Heat presentations that involve Heart channel disturbance or Liver-Heart Blood stasis patterns. It is not the primary formula for Cold-type Blood stasis, Qi deficiency-driven Blood stasis, or Blood stasis presentations without a significant Heat component. Your authorizing veterinarian will determine the most appropriate Blood stasis formula based on your animal's specific TCVM pattern diagnosis, or as directed by your veterinarian.
