Description
Gan Mao Ling is a potent remedy for quickly dispelling pathogenic influences from the surface layers of the body before they sink deeply into the internal layers, where they are more serious and difficult to treat. Wind Heat epidemics are fast-moving and vicious, and potent herbs are required to clear Heat and dispel Wind while the disorder is still in the acute stage. Though primarily used for Wind Heat pattern, this formula can also be used for Wind Cold invasions.*
