Based on Dao Chi San from \u003cem\u003eXiao Er Yao Zheng Zhi Jue\u003c\/em\u003e (Craft of Medicinal Treatment for Childhood Disease Patterns) written by Qian Yi in 1119 CE, this four-herb classical formula combines a Blood-level Heat-clearing and Yin-nourishing herb (Sheng Di Huang), a Heart-Heat-clearing and urination-promoting herb that guides Fire downward through the Small Intestine to the Bladder (Chuan Mu Tong), a Heart-Heat-clearing and Damp-draining herb (Dan Zhu Ye), and a Heat-clearing, toxin-resolving, and harmonizing herb (Gan Cao) to address the Heart Fire and Small Intestine Damp-Heat accumulation pattern underlying lower urinary tract Heat presentations. Available as 0.5g capsules (200 count). No contraindications and no warnings are listed for this formula. May be used for up to 4 months, or as directed by your veterinarian.

Holistic veterinarians frequently prescribe it as a classical TCVM lower urinary tract Heat support formula for Heart Fire and Small Intestine Damp-Heat patterns.

This pairing means that excess Heat or Fire accumulating in the Heart channel can transfer through this interior-exterior relationship into the Small Intestine channel, and from there into the Bladder, producing lower urinary tract Heat signs. This mechanism - Heart Fire transferring to the Small Intestine - is the core TCVM pathological mechanism that Dao Chi San targets. The formula's chief herb, Chuan Mu Tong, specifically guides Heart Fire downward through this exact pathway: from the Heart channel, through the Small Intestine, and out via the Bladder through promoted urination. This is why Dao Chi San can address both Heart-level signs (irritability, restlessness) and lower urinary tract signs simultaneously - they share the same TCVM root mechanism of Heart Fire accumulation and transfer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eHow does Dao Chi San compare to other TCVM urinary tract support formulas?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eDao Chi San is specifically designed for the Heart Fire transferring to Small Intestine pattern, distinguishing it from other TCVM urinary tract support formulas that primarily address different patterns. Formulas targeting Kidney Yin deficiency with Damp-Heat (such as Zhi Bai Di Huang Wan) combine Yin-nourishing herbs with Heat-clearing herbs but do not specifically address the Heart-Small Intestine transfer mechanism. Formulas targeting Bladder Damp-Heat without a Heart Fire component (such as Ba Zheng San) use stronger Damp-draining and Heat-purging herbs but lack Dao Chi San's Heart channel-specific strategy. Dao Chi San's four-herb classical composition is uniquely focused on the Heart-Small Intestine transfer mechanism, making it the most appropriate formula for urinary tract Heat presentations where Heart Fire accumulation and associated Heart-level signs are part of the clinical picture. Your authorizing veterinarian will determine the most appropriate TCVM urinary formula based on your animal's specific pattern diagnosis.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2023-01-09T14:09:02-06:00","created_at":"2022-12-05T14:30:48-06:00","vendor":"Jing Tang","type":"Pet Vitamins \u0026 Supplements","tags":["Els_PW_7628","Health_Need_Immune","Herb_Type_Concentrated_Capsule","Product_Type_Herb","Species_Cat","Species_Dog","Vendor_Jing_Tang"],"price":11535,"price_min":11535,"price_max":11535,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":40434035916870,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"E0280C2-200","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Jing Tang Dao Chi San 0.5g Capsules (200 Count)","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":11535,"weight":1,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":null,"barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/tcvmpet.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/JingTang-Capsules_705d1309-d1f5-476e-96df-3eb7d07ce3df.jpg?v=1670276840","\/\/tcvmpet.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/E0202C2-200_8c09df32-4a3d-4d56-9c67-abab7508e331.jpg?v=1670276891"],"featured_image":"\/\/tcvmpet.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/JingTang-Capsules_705d1309-d1f5-476e-96df-3eb7d07ce3df.jpg?v=1670276840","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"Jing Tang herbal capsules for pets, tan gelatin capsules filled with concentrated TCVM herbal formula for dogs and cats","id":22103146856518,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":1024,"width":1024,"src":"\/\/tcvmpet.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/JingTang-Capsules_705d1309-d1f5-476e-96df-3eb7d07ce3df.jpg?v=1670276840"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":1024,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/tcvmpet.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/JingTang-Capsules_705d1309-d1f5-476e-96df-3eb7d07ce3df.jpg?v=1670276840","width":1024},{"alt":"Jing Tang Dao Chi San 0.5g Capsules #200 - Package Front \u0026 Photo of Capsules","id":22103146823750,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":400,"width":400,"src":"\/\/tcvmpet.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/E0202C2-200_8c09df32-4a3d-4d56-9c67-abab7508e331.jpg?v=1670276891"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":400,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/tcvmpet.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/E0202C2-200_8c09df32-4a3d-4d56-9c67-abab7508e331.jpg?v=1670276891","width":400}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0021\/2110\/5457\/files\/veterinary_authorizaton_required_for_tcvm_herbal_formulas_240x240.jpg?v=1787081808\" alt=\"Veterinary Authorization Required for TCVM Herbal Formulas - TCVM Pet Supply\" style=\"margin: 5px 5px 5px 5px; float: right;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eRecommended by holistic veterinarians, \u003cstrong\u003eJing Tang Dao Chi San\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) herbal formula that clears Heat from the Heart and Small Intestine channels and benefits urination to address patterns of Heart Fire transferring to the Small Intestine with Damp-Heat accumulation in the lower urinary tract in dogs, cats, and horses.

This pairing means that excess Heat or Fire accumulating in the Heart channel can transfer through this interior-exterior relationship into the Small Intestine channel, and from there into the Bladder, producing lower urinary tract Heat signs. This mechanism - Heart Fire transferring to the Small Intestine - is the core TCVM pathological mechanism that Dao Chi San targets. The formula's chief herb, Chuan Mu Tong, specifically guides Heart Fire downward through this exact pathway: from the Heart channel, through the Small Intestine, and out via the Bladder through promoted urination. This is why Dao Chi San can address both Heart-level signs (irritability, restlessness) and lower urinary tract signs simultaneously - they share the same TCVM root mechanism of Heart Fire accumulation and transfer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eHow does Dao Chi San compare to other TCVM urinary tract support formulas?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eDao Chi San is specifically designed for the Heart Fire transferring to Small Intestine pattern, distinguishing it from other TCVM urinary tract support formulas that primarily address different patterns. Formulas targeting Kidney Yin deficiency with Damp-Heat (such as Zhi Bai Di Huang Wan) combine Yin-nourishing herbs with Heat-clearing herbs but do not specifically address the Heart-Small Intestine transfer mechanism. Formulas targeting Bladder Damp-Heat without a Heart Fire component (such as Ba Zheng San) use stronger Damp-draining and Heat-purging herbs but lack Dao Chi San's Heart channel-specific strategy. Dao Chi San's four-herb classical composition is uniquely focused on the Heart-Small Intestine transfer mechanism, making it the most appropriate formula for urinary tract Heat presentations where Heart Fire accumulation and associated Heart-level signs are part of the clinical picture. Your authorizing veterinarian will determine the most appropriate TCVM urinary formula based on your animal's specific pattern diagnosis.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e"}
