- Qing Feng Teng and Cx. Erythinae Hai Tong Pi both expel Wind and eliminate Dampness, treating Wind-Dampness whether it presents as joint pain, sinew contraction, or restricted limb movement. Hai Tong Pi, being more cooling, excels at eliminating Dampness and so suits hot, painful Bi or Damp-Heat in the lower body causing burning pain in the low back or legs; it can also be applied topically for itchy Damp rashes, scabies, and toothache. Qing Feng Teng, by contrast, is neutral, relieves Bi pain, and promotes urination, making it useful for edema, scanty urine, and Damp swelling from leg Qi.
- In Japan, it is used in place of Rx. Stephaniae Tetrandrae Han Fang Ji.
