San Qi 17, also known as San Qi Die Da Pian, cracks static blood and relieves pain.
San Qi 17 by Seven Forests is based on patent remedies that are sometimes called "hit pills", because they were designed to treat a person who has been struck by a hard blow. This might occur in the practice of martial arts or simply from an accident.
San Qi 17 is comprised mainly of blood vitalizing herbs, especially the ones that are said to "crack static blood". This means that they can hasten the resolution of clotted blood, as is found in bruises and knife wounds the property differs from simply enhancing the circulation of blood, as is often accomplished with Red Root Sage, red peony, and millettia in modern formulas. The main blood-cracking agents in this formula are san-chi, myrrh, frankincense, calamus (also called "dragon's blood"), persica, carthamus, and eupolyphaga.
Chinese literature expresses concerns about using "strong" blood vitalizing agents in persons of weak constitution. In general, this concern is with the high Serving Size decoctions and not the pill form and with formulas that have no tonics included. San-chi, tang-kuei, cinnamon twig, red peony, and licorice in this formula provide some tonic effect.
Take 2-3 count, three times a day.
