It is a commonly used traditional Chinese patent medicine with the main functions of clearing away heat and toxic materials, reducing swelling, and relieving inflammation, which are key therapeutic effects in traditional Chinese medicine for addressing conditions caused by heat-toxin accumulation and upper respiratory tract or skin infections.
It is applicable to symptoms and conditions resulting from heat-toxin accumulation, such as:
Upper respiratory tract infections, including:
Sore throat, red and swollen throat, difficulty in swallowing caused by acute pharyngitis or tonsillitis.
Cough, sore throat, and discomfort in the throat due to acute laryngitis or acute bronchitis with heat-toxin manifestations.
Skin and soft tissue infections, such as:
Local redness, swelling, heat, and pain caused by boils, furuncles, or folliculitis (superficial skin abscesses) due to heat-toxin.
Swelling and pain from mild skin inflammation or insect bites with heat-toxin symptoms.
Other mild to moderate inflammatory conditions characterized by heat-toxin signs, such as swollen gums with pain related to heat accumulation.
Note: Kuihua Pudilan Xiaoyan Tablets are a traditional Chinese patent medicine for heat-clearing and detoxification. It is advisable to use them under the guidance of a professional Chinese medicine practitioner or pharmacist to confirm they match the heat-toxin syndrome (e.g., it is not suitable for conditions caused by wind-cold or deficiency-cold). Avoid long-term use without medical advice, especially for those with weak spleen and stomach (prone to diarrhea) as it may cause gastrointestinal discomfort. If symptoms persist, worsen, or are accompanied by high fever, severe pain, or difficulty breathing, consult a medical professional promptly.
