Recommended by holistic veterinarians, Jing Tang Jin Suo Gu Jing is a Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) herbal formula that warms and consolidates Kidney Qi to address Kidney Qi deficiency with failure to consolidate in dogs, cats, and horses. Based on the classical Jin Suo Gu Jing Wan from Yi Fang Ji Jie (Analytic Collection of Medical Formulas, written by Wang Ang in 1682), this five-herb formula is composed entirely of astringent, Kidney-consolidating, and Essence-securing herbs (Sha Yuan Zi, Qian Shi, Lian Xu, Sang Piao Xiao, Mu Li) to address the leakage of Kidney Qi and Essence associated with Kidney Qi deficiency. Available in concentrated powder (90g), concentrated capsules (0.5g or 0.2g), or teapills (200 count). No contraindications or warnings are listed for this formula. Dosing varies by species and body weight; your authorizing veterinarian will provide specific guidance.

Jin Suo Gu Jing Wan is a five-herb formula composed entirely of astringent, Kidney-consolidating, and Essence-securing herbs organized around a Kidney Yang-tonifying and lower Jiao-astringent core to address Kidney Qi deficiency with failure to consolidate:
Jin Suo Gu Jing contains Kidney Yang-tonifying and astringent herbs including Sha Yuan Zi (flattened milkvetch seed), Sang Piao Xiao (mantis egg case), Qian Shi (euryale seed), Lian Xu (lotus stamen), and Mu Li (oyster shell), which may affect hormone balance, lower Jiao fluid regulation, and drug absorption. Pets on prescription 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 hormone-modulating drugs, urinary medications, and pets managing multiple concurrent prescriptions. Your veterinarian can determine appropriateness based on your pet's condition, current medications, and laboratory results.

Jin Suo Gu Jing is indicated in TCVM for Kidney Qi deficiency with failure to consolidate, where the Kidney's storing and governing functions are insufficient to retain Qi and Essence in the lower Jiao. Holistic veterinarians commonly recommend it for dogs, cats, and horses with urinary patterns, incontinence, or systemic signs of Kidney Qi deficiency and leakage, particularly when accompanied by a pale or pale-lavender tongue with a thin coat and a deep, weak pulse in the rear position. No contraindications or warnings are listed for this formula. Your authorizing veterinarian will confirm the appropriate TCVM pattern diagnosis before recommending Jin Suo Gu Jing.
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 0.5g to 1 small scoop per 10 to 20 lbs of body weight twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian; the small scoop holds approximately 0.25g, and the large scoop holds approximately 1.2g. For horses, the standard dose is 3g (approximately 2.5 large scoops) twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian. For 0.5g concentrated capsules, the guideline is one capsule per 20 to 40 lbs of body weight twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian. For 0.2g concentrated capsules, cats and small dogs under 10 lbs receive one capsule once daily, or as directed by your veterinarian. Mix concentrated powder directly into wet or dry food at each meal. Capsules and teapills can be given directly or hidden in food or a soft treat.
Jin Suo Gu Jing is specifically an astringent and consolidating formula designed to secure and retain Kidney Qi and Essence rather than primarily tonify deficiency. It is most appropriate for patterns where the Kidney's storing function has been compromised, and leakage is occurring in the lower Jiao. Other Kidney-supporting formulas such as Jin Gui Shen Qi Wan focus on tonifying Kidney Yang deficiency without the strong astringent and consolidating emphasis, while formulas like Zuo Gui Wan focus on nourishing Kidney Yin and Jing. Your holistic veterinarian will determine the most appropriate formula based on your pet's specific TCVM pattern and pulse and tongue findings.
Jin Suo Gu Jing is sometimes used alongside other TCVM formulas as part of a comprehensive Kidney Qi and urinary support protocol, but your authorizing veterinarian should always guide combination use. If your pet is on prescription medications, particularly urinary or hormone-modulating medications, your veterinarian will evaluate whether Jin Suo Gu Jing is appropriate given your pet's full health picture and current treatment plan. No contraindications or warnings are listed for this formula.
