Anmerkungen

  • It is frequently applied for pelvic inflammation, particularly urinary tract infection.
  • The whole plant, Hb. Plantaginis Che Qian Cao, promotes urination less strongly but clears Heat more effectively; it also detoxifies. Sweet and cold, it treats abscesses and swellings both internally and topically, at a dosage of 9-30g or 2-5ml as a tincture.
  • The seed's mucilage content soothes the vagina, colon, and urinary tract.
  • It plays a key role in promoting urination, clearing Damp-Heat, and clearing Heat from the Liver and Lung.
  • Because the seeds are quite small, decoct them in a separate cloth bag to keep the decoction from becoming too gelatinous.
  • Che Qian Zi and Rz. Alismatis Ze Xie both promote water movement, reduce edema, clear Heat, enter the Kidney channel, and drain Dampness, and are often paired for edema-related abdominal distention, Lin Syndrome, and Summerheat-Damp diarrhea.
