Recommended by holistic veterinarians, Jing Tang Hu Qian Wan is a Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) formula that nourishes Yin, purges Fire, and strengthens tendons and bones to address Kidney and Liver Yin deficiency with deficiency Fire and sinew and bone weakness patterns in dogs, cats, and horses. Based on the classical Hu Qian Wan (Hidden Tiger Pill), this eight-herb formula combines potent Yin-nourishing and Fire-purging herbs with Yang-tonifying, sinew-strengthening, and Spleen-protecting agents to address both the root Yin deficiency and the deficiency Fire and sinew and bone weakness that arise from Kidney and Liver Yin deficiency. Available in concentrated powder and concentrated capsules. Stop administration immediately if the patient develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs. Dosing varies by species, body weight, and health condition; your authorizing veterinarian will determine the appropriate dose following a TCVM evaluation.

Hu Qian Wan is an eight-herb formula pairing strong Yin-nourishing and Fire-purging herbs with Yang-tonifying, sinew-strengthening, and Spleen-protecting agents to address Kidney and Liver Yin deficiency with deficiency Fire and sinew and bone weakness:
Hu Qian Wan contains potent Fire-purging herbs (Huang Bai, Zhi Mu) alongside Yin-nourishing herbs (Shu Di Huang, Bai Shao Yao) and Yang-tonifying herbs (Suo Yang) that may interact with certain medications. Stop administration immediately if the patient develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs. Pets on prescription medications should use this formula under veterinary supervision, as herb-drug interaction research in dogs and cats remains limited.
Medication categories warranting extra caution include hormone-modulating drugs, anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications, immunosuppressive medications, and pets managing multiple concurrent prescriptions. The manufacturer recommends use as needed for up to 6 months. Your veterinarian can determine appropriateness based on your pet's condition, current medications, and laboratory results.

Hu Qian Wan is most commonly recommended for dogs, cats, and horses with TCVM patterns of Kidney and Liver Yin deficiency with deficiency Fire and sinew and bone weakness, where Yin deficiency has allowed Fire to accumulate and the sinews and bones to lose their nourishment. Holistic veterinarians frequently prescribe it for pets with hind limb weakness, musculoskeletal patterns rooted in Kidney and Liver Yin deficiency, or systemic signs of Yin deficiency with deficiency Fire affecting the lower body. The manufacturer lists no contraindications for this formula.
Dosing varies by species, body weight, and health condition; your authorizing veterinarian will determine the appropriate dose following a TCVM evaluation. For dogs and cats using 0.5g concentrated capsules, the general guideline is one capsule per 20 to 40 lbs of body weight twice daily. For small dogs and cats under 10 lbs, one 0.2g capsule once daily is typical when that format is available. For the 90g concentrated powder, the dose for dogs and cats is 0.1g to 0.25g per 10 to 20 lbs twice daily; the included small scoop holds approximately 0.3g, and the large scoop holds approximately 1.2g. For horses, the standard dose is 3g (approximately 2.5 large scoops) twice daily. Stop administration immediately if the patient develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs. The manufacturer recommends use as needed for up to 6 months.
Gan Jiang (dried ginger) and Chen Pi (tangerine peel) are included specifically to protect the Spleen from the cold, bitter actions of Huang Bai and Zhi Mu. In classical Chinese medicine, strong Fire-purging herbs like Huang Bai and Zhi Mu are cold and bitter in nature, and prolonged use without Spleen protection can damage Spleen Yang and cause digestive upset. By including Gan Jiang and Chen Pi, the formula supports digestion and allows the Fire-purging herbs to be used safely over the longer treatment course recommended for Yin deficiency patterns. This is a classical formulation strategy seen in many Yin-nourishing and Fire-purging formulas.
Hu Qian Wan is sometimes used alongside other TCVM formulas as part of a comprehensive Yin tonification and musculoskeletal support protocol, but combination use should always be guided by your authorizing veterinarian. If your pet is on prescription medications, particularly hormone-modulating or immunosuppressive medications, your veterinarian will evaluate whether Hu Qian Wan is appropriate given your pet's full health picture and current treatment plan.
