Bu Xue Xi Feng is a Jing Tang TCVM herbal formula recommended by holistic veterinarians to nourish Blood and clear Internal Wind in dogs, cats, and horses. Based on a modification of Si Wu Tang from Tai Ping Hui Min He Ji Ju Fang (Imperial Grace Formulary of the Tai Ping Era) written by Chen Shi-Wen et al. in 1080, this ten-herb formula combines the classical Blood-nourishing Si Wu Tang framework with potent Wind-extinguishing, channel-opening, and Phlegm-resolving herbs specifically selected for Internal Wind patterns rooted in Blood deficiency. Available in a 90g Concentrated Powder, 0.2g Capsules (50 count), and 0.5g Capsules (100 count). No contraindications listed. Dosing varies by species and body weight; your authorizing veterinarian will provide specific guidance.

Bu Xue Xi Feng builds the classical Si Wu Tang Blood-nourishing framework (Shu Di Huang, Bai Shao Yao, Dang Gui, Chuan Xiong) and adds Wind-extinguishing, Phlegm-resolving, and channel-opening herbs to create a comprehensive formula for Blood deficiency with Internal Wind:
Bu Xue Xi Feng contains Blood-nourishing herbs (Shu Di Huang, Dang Gui, Bai Shao Yao), Blood-invigorating herbs (Chuan Xiong, Dang Gui), Qi-tonifying herbs (Dang Shen, Bai Zhu), Wind-extinguishing herbs (Gou Teng, Chan Tui), and Wind-Phlegm-resolving herbs (Jiang Can, Bai Fu Zi) that may interact with certain medications. Gou Teng has documented interactions with certain antihypertensive and cardiovascular medications. Pets on prescription medications, including anticonvulsant medications, should use this formula under veterinary supervision, as herb-drug interaction research in dogs, cats, and horses remains limited.
Medication categories warranting extra caution include anticonvulsant medications, antihypertensive medications, cardiovascular medications, anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications, and multiple concurrent prescription medications. Your veterinarian can determine appropriateness based on the patient's condition, medications, and laboratory results.

Bu Xue Xi Feng is used in TCVM for Internal Wind patterns rooted in Blood deficiency - a pattern in which insufficient Liver Blood fails to nourish and anchor the Liver, allowing Liver Wind to rise internally and generate tremors, convulsions, spasm, and involuntary movement. In TCVM, Internal Wind is distinguished from External Wind (Wind invasion from outside the body) by its origin within the body through Liver Blood deficiency, Liver Yang rising, or Liver Fire flaring. Bu Xue Xi Feng specifically addresses the Blood deficiency root of Internal Wind, making it particularly appropriate for patients whose Wind signs are accompanied by signs of Blood deficiency such as pale mucous membranes, muscle wasting, dry coat, and weakness. The manufacturer lists no contraindications for this formula.
For horses, give 3g (2.5 large scoops) of concentrated powder twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian. For dogs and cats using the 90g Concentrated Powder, give 0.1g to 0.25g per 10 to 20 lb body weight twice daily; the small scoop holds approximately 0.3g. For the 0.5g Capsule format, give one capsule per 20 to 40 lb body weight twice daily; for small dogs and cats under 10 lbs, give one 0.2g capsule once daily, or as directed by your veterinarian.
Chan Tui (Cicada molting) and Jiang Can (Silkworm larva) are classical insect-derived herbs widely used in TCVM Wind formulas because of their unique ability to extinguish Wind, resolve Wind-Phlegm, and open the channels in ways that plant-based herbs cannot fully replicate. In TCVM theory, insect-derived substances have a strong affinity for Wind conditions because insects themselves move quickly, penetrate openings, and reach areas inaccessible to slower-moving substances - qualities that translate into their clinical actions of penetrating obstructed channels, dispelling Wind, and resolving the tremor and spasm component of Internal Wind. Chan Tui specifically disperses Wind from the superficial channels and alleviates spasm, while Jiang Can resolves Wind-Phlegm and opens the channels obstructed by the combination of Wind and Phlegm. Together they provide a complementary Wind-extinguishing and Wind-Phlegm-resolving action that the plant-based herbs in the formula cannot replicate.
Bu Xue Xi Feng is distinguished from other TCVM Wind formulas by its explicit dual strategy of simultaneously nourishing the Blood root and extinguishing the Wind manifestation. Many Wind-extinguishing formulas focus primarily on suppressing or clearing Wind through Wind-extinguishing and sedating herbs, but Bu Xue Xi Feng is built on the Si Wu Tang Blood-nourishing framework, reflecting the TCVM principle that Blood deficiency is the root cause of the Liver Wind pattern it addresses. Without restoring sufficient Liver Blood to nourish and anchor the Liver, Wind-extinguishing herbs alone provide only symptomatic relief; the Blood-nourishing foundation of Bu Xue Xi Feng addresses the root simultaneously. Your veterinarian will determine which Wind formula best matches your pet's specific pattern through a full TCVM evaluation.
