Xi Yang Shen

Ren Shen (Ginseng radix,), Dang Shen (Codonopsis radix) and Xi Yang Shen (Panacis quinquefolii radix,)... 

Xi Yang Shen is bitter, cold and slightly sweet, and enters the Heart, Lung and Kidney meridians. It is quite a strong herb for tonifying the Yin and Qi of these organs and is able to reduce heat. It is particularly useful in severe and chronic conditions of Yin and Qi deficiency of the Lung. 

In cases with a vacuous, weak pulse, take with a decoction made from Radix Panacis Quinquefolii (Xi Yang Shen) to support the righteous. 

Gui Ban, Xuan Shen, Tian Men Dong and Bai Shao Yao are also used as deputies. This group helps Huai Niu Xi to nourish the Yin of the Kidney and Liver, and treat the cause of Liver-Yang ascending. They can also nourish the Yin, soften the tendons and relieve the cramp and trembling.
