Comparable to Ginseng Decoction to Nourish the Nutritive Qi, Ginseng and Rehmannia Combination, and Ginseng Nourishing Formula, it augments the qi, tonifies the blood, nourishes the heart, and calms the spirit, addressing profound deficiency of both qi and blood with concurrent heart-spirit insufficiency. One of the most comprehensive qi and blood tonic formulas in the classical repertoire, built on the Ba Zhen Tang qi-and-blood-tonifying foundation with five additional herbs that strongly augment the wei qi, warm the yang to promote blood circulation, move qi to prevent tonic stagnation, astringe the lung and heart qi, and open the heart orifices to settle the spirit. Well suited for pets and horses presenting with the combined qi and blood deficiency and heart spirit insufficiency pattern, characterized by profound fatigue, pallor or pale mucous membranes, poor appetite, weight loss, forgetfulness, palpitations, restless or poor sleep, and a pale tongue with a thin white coating and a thin or frail pulse reflecting the deep qi and blood deficiency underlying the pattern. Also a primary formula for recovery from chronic illness, prolonged deficiency states, or post-surgical and post-illness convalescence where both qi and blood have been significantly depleted. Available as a concentrated powder mixed into food; cats and dogs use the Canine Blend, while horses use the Equine\/Horse Blend. Dosing varies by species and body weight, and your authorizing veterinarian will provide specific guidance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVETERINARY AUTHORIZATION REQUIRED: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/tcvmpet.com\/pages\/get-an-authorization\" rel=\"noopener\" style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSubmit Your Authorization Request\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/tcvmpet.com\/pages\/schedule-a-consultation\" rel=\"noopener\" style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eRequest a TCVM Telemedicine Consultation\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eWhat It Supports\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQi augmentation and wei qi strengthening:\u003c\/strong\u003e Powerfully augments the spleen, lung, and yuan qi and strengthens the wei qi using Ren Shen, Huang Qi, Bai Zhu, and Zhi Gan Cao, addressing the profound qi deficiency that produces the extreme fatigue, poor appetite, weight loss, and immune vulnerability characteristic of the combined qi and blood deficiency pattern, and strengthening the wei qi to support the body's defensive capacity as the qi and blood are rebuilt over the treatment course.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlood tonification and nutritive qi nourishment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tonifies and nourishes the blood and nutritive qi using Shu Di Huang, Bai Shao, and Dang Gui as the principal blood-nourishing herbs, addressing the blood deficiency that produces the pallor, palpitations, restless sleep, poor memory, and heart spirit insufficiency characteristic of the combined pattern, and nourishing the nutritive qi that circulates through the vessels and channels to ensure the heart, liver, and spirit are adequately nourished alongside the qi tonification.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeart nourishment and spirit calming:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nourishes the heart and calms the spirit using Wu Wei Zi's astringent and heart qi-collecting action and Yuan Zhi's orifice-opening and spirit-settling action, addressing the heart spirit insufficiency that arises when both qi and blood are deficient and the heart lacks the qi and blood needed to house the spirit, producing the palpitations, poor sleep, anxiety, and forgetfulness that accompany the profound deficiency pattern.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstitutional recovery and convalescent support:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports constitutional recovery from chronic illness, prolonged deficiency, or post-illness convalescence by comprehensively addressing all dimensions of the qi and blood deficiency pattern simultaneously, providing the qi, blood, yang warmth, and spirit support needed to restore the foundational constitutional strength depleted by sustained illness, poor nutrition, or prolonged physical or emotional strain in debilitated pets and horses.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eTCVM Principles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary action - comprehensive qi and blood tonification on the Ba Zhen Tang foundation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Augments the qi with the Si Jun Zi Tang base (Ren Shen, Bai Zhu, Fu Ling, Zhi Gan Cao) and tonifies the blood with the Si Wu Tang-derived blood-nourishing group (Shu Di Huang, Bai Shao, Dang Gui;

Comparable to Ginseng Decoction to Nourish the Nutritive Qi, Ginseng and Rehmannia Combination, and Ginseng Nourishing Formula, it is one of the most comprehensive classical formulas for the combined qi-blood-spirit deficiency pattern, and is a primary formula for convalescent support following chronic illness, prolonged deficiency states, or post-surgical or post-illness recovery where both qi and blood have been significantly depleted.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eHow is Ren Shen Yang Ying San administered to dogs, cats, and horses?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eMix the powder directly into food or grain at the dose recommended for your animal's species and body weight. Dogs and cats use the Canine Blend; horses use the Equine\/Horse Blend. Dogs and cats receive the formula twice daily; horses receive two tablespoons twice daily for the first 20 days, then once daily for maintenance. If the horse initially refuses, start with a small amount mixed into grain and gradually increase until the horse is accustomed to the taste. Most horses will readily accept the herbs in their grain. Your authorizing veterinarian will confirm the appropriate dose and schedule for your individual animal and review the full medication list, given the formula's multiple herbs with anticoagulant, antidiabetic, and immune-modulating effects.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eHow long does it take to see results with Ren Shen Yang Ying San?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eBecause Ren Shen Yang Ying San addresses profound and often longstanding qi and blood deficiency, improvement in energy, appetite, and coat or muscle condition typically becomes noticeable within 4 to 8 weeks of consistent use as the qi and blood are progressively rebuilt. Improvement in spirit-related signs such as sleep quality, calmness, and cognitive clarity may appear within 3 to 6 weeks as Yuan Zhi and Wu Wei Zi nourish the heart spirit and open the orifices. Because the profound deficiency underlying the pattern is typically established over months or years, a treatment course of 3 to 6 months or more is often needed to fully restore the qi and blood and maintain constitutional strength over time.

Ba Zhen Tang (Si Jun Zi Tang plus Si Wu Tang) is the foundational qi-and-blood tonic without additional specialization. Shi Quan Da Bu Tang adds Huang Qi and Rou Gui to Ba Zhen Tang to address wei qi deficiency and yang deficiency alongside the qi and blood. Ren Shen Yang Ying San similarly adds Huang Qi and Rou Gui, but further adds Wu Wei Zi, Yuan Zhi, and Chen Pi to specifically address heart spirit insufficiency and the risk of tonic stagnation in the middle jiao, making it the most appropriate choice when palpitations, forgetfulness, and restless sleep indicate significant heart spirit involvement alongside the qi and blood deficiency.

One of the most comprehensive qi and blood tonic formulas in the classical repertoire, built on the Ba Zhen Tang qi-and-blood-tonifying foundation with five additional herbs that strongly augment the wei qi, warm the yang to promote blood circulation, move qi to prevent tonic stagnation, astringe the lung and heart qi, and open the heart orifices to settle the spirit. Well suited for pets and horses presenting with the combined qi and blood deficiency and heart spirit insufficiency pattern, characterized by profound fatigue, pallor or pale mucous membranes, poor appetite, weight loss, forgetfulness, palpitations, restless or poor sleep, and a pale tongue with a thin white coating and a thin or frail pulse reflecting the deep qi and blood deficiency underlying the pattern. Also a primary formula for recovery from chronic illness, prolonged deficiency states, or post-surgical and post-illness convalescence where both qi and blood have been significantly depleted. Available as a concentrated powder mixed into food; cats and dogs use the Canine Blend, while horses use the Equine\/Horse Blend.

Comparable to Ginseng Decoction to Nourish the Nutritive Qi, Ginseng and Rehmannia Combination, and Ginseng Nourishing Formula, it is one of the most comprehensive classical formulas for the combined qi-blood-spirit deficiency pattern, and is a primary formula for convalescent support following chronic illness, prolonged deficiency states, or post-surgical or post-illness recovery where both qi and blood have been significantly depleted.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eHow is Ren Shen Yang Ying San administered to dogs, cats, and horses?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eMix the powder directly into food or grain at the dose recommended for your animal's species and body weight.

Dogs and cats receive the formula twice daily; horses receive two tablespoons twice daily for the first 20 days, then once daily for maintenance. If the horse initially refuses, start with a small amount mixed into grain and gradually increase until the horse is accustomed to the taste. Most horses will readily accept the herbs in their grain.

Improvement in spirit-related signs such as sleep quality, calmness, and cognitive clarity may appear within 3 to 6 weeks as Yuan Zhi and Wu Wei Zi nourish the heart spirit and open the orifices. Because the profound deficiency underlying the pattern is typically established over months or years, a treatment course of 3 to 6 months or more is often needed to fully restore the qi and blood and maintain constitutional strength over time.

Ba Zhen Tang (Si Jun Zi Tang plus Si Wu Tang) is the foundational qi-and-blood tonic without additional specialization. Shi Quan Da Bu Tang adds Huang Qi and Rou Gui to Ba Zhen Tang to address wei qi deficiency and yang deficiency alongside the qi and blood. Ren Shen Yang Ying San similarly adds Huang Qi and Rou Gui, but further adds Wu Wei Zi, Yuan Zhi, and Chen Pi to specifically address heart spirit insufficiency and the risk of tonic stagnation in the middle jiao, making it the most appropriate choice when palpitations, forgetfulness, and restless sleep indicate significant heart spirit involvement alongside the qi and blood deficiency.
