Recommended by holistic veterinarians, Jing Tang Su Zi Jiang Qi is a Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) formula that transforms phlegm, strengthens Kidney Yang, and descends Qi from the Upper Jiao to the Lower Jiao to support respiratory health and normal breathing in dogs, cats, and horses. Based on the classical Su Zi Jiang Qi Tang, this ten-herb formula addresses the root and branch of Kidney Yang deficiency with rebellious Lung Qi and phlegm accumulation - relieving respiratory discomfort and restoring the Kidney's ability to grasp Qi. Available in concentrated powder and concentrated capsules. Dosing varies by species, body weight, and health condition; your authorizing veterinarian will determine the appropriate dose following a TCVM evaluation.

Su Zi Jiang Qi combines Qi-descending and phlegm-transforming herbs with Kidney Yang-warming agents to address both the branch (rebellious Lung Qi and phlegm) and the root (Kidney Yang deficiency):
Su Zi Jiang Qi contains warming and Yang-tonifying herbs (Rou Gui, Gan Jiang) alongside Blood-moving herbs (Dang Gui) and phlegm-transforming herbs (Ban Xia, Hou Po) that may interact with certain medications. 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 bronchodilators or respiratory medications, anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications, hormone-modulating drugs, and pets managing multiple concurrent prescriptions. Your veterinarian can determine appropriateness based on your pet's condition, current medications, and laboratory results.

Su Zi Jiang Qi is most commonly recommended for dogs, cats, and horses with TCVM patterns of Kidney Yang deficiency with rebellious Lung Qi and phlegm accumulation. Holistic veterinarians frequently prescribe it for pets experiencing chronic coughing, wheezing, labored breathing, or respiratory weakness where the underlying pattern involves the Kidney's failure to grasp and anchor Qi downward. It is particularly well-suited for older pets with chronic respiratory conditions rooted in Kidney Yang deficiency. 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. 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. 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.
Response time varies depending on the individual pet, the severity and chronicity of the Kidney Yang deficiency and phlegm pattern, and the format used. Many pet owners begin to notice improvements in breathing comfort, coughing frequency, and energy within 2 to 4 weeks of consistent use. The manufacturer recommends use as needed for up to 6 months. For chronic or long-standing respiratory conditions, your veterinarian may recommend a longer course of treatment before evaluating results. Regular follow-up with your holistic veterinarian is recommended to monitor progress and adjust dosing as needed.
Su Zi Jiang Qi is sometimes used alongside other TCVM formulas as part of a comprehensive respiratory support protocol, but combination use should always be guided by your authorizing veterinarian. If your pet is on prescription medications - particularly respiratory medications, anticoagulants, or hormone-modulating drugs - your veterinarian will evaluate whether Su Zi Jiang Qi is appropriate given your pet's full health picture and current treatment plan. Stop use immediately if your pet develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs, and contact your veterinarian.
