It is based on a modification of the classical Du Huo Ji Sheng Tang (Angelica and Loranthus Decoction) from Sun Si-Miao's Qian Jin Yao Fang (652 AD), with additional warming and Qi-moving herbs tailored to the Jing Tang clinical modification.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eHow is Dok's Formula administered and dosed?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eFor horses, give 3g (2.5 large scoops) of concentrated powder twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian.

Dok's Formula is Jing Tang's modification, which substitutes and adds warming Qi-moving herbs - Rou Dou Kou (Nutmeg), Xiao Hui Xiang (Fennel), and Wu Yao (Lindera) - and includes Ze Xie (Alisma) to drain accumulated Damp.

In patients with Yin deficiency - characterized by excessive thirst, panting, heat intolerance, dry coat, or restlessness - these warming herbs may aggravate the existing Heat and dryness. Ze Xie (Water Plantain) is included to balance the formula's warming nature, but this is insufficient to make the formula appropriate for true Yin deficient presentations. A different formula targeting Kidney Yin or Yin-Yang balance would be more appropriate for those patients.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eHow does Dok's Formula differ from the standard Du Huo Ji Sheng Tang?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eThe classical Du Huo Ji Sheng Tang includes herbs such as Sang Ji Sheng (Loranthus), Qin Jiao (Gentiana), Xi Xin (Asarum), Ren Shen (Ginseng), Fu Ling (Poria), and Shu Di Huang (Rehmannia) for a broad Kidney-Liver tonic and bi syndrome formula. Dok's Formula is Jing Tang's modification, which substitutes and adds warming Qi-moving herbs - Rou Dou Kou (Nutmeg), Xiao Hui Xiang (Fennel), and Wu Yao (Lindera) - and includes Ze Xie (Alisma) to drain accumulated Damp. This makes it more targeted toward Cold-dominant bi syndrome with significant Qi stagnation in the channels, particularly in the lower back and hindlimbs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e"}
