Fortified Platycodon & Fritillary with Scutellaria (standardized to 30% Baicalin) and Isatis root is a classic formula with an extra herbal boost for those seeking relief from lung congestion and persistent cough.
This formula helps to resolve phlegm, alleviate cough, and sooth irritation in the throat.
The addition of the heat clearing Scutellaria (with 30% Baicalin) and Isatis root make this formula perfect for those dealing with acute heat signs in the Lung channel.
Clearing toxic heat is important for healthy Lung function during seasonal fluctuations once external influences get past the 'wei qi' level of immune defense.
This formula may also be appropriate for those that live in urban areas and are exposed to high levels of air pollutants and coughs.
Smokers find this formula useful as well for clearing out toxins whether they are doing so while quitting or just to keep the lungs protected during times of heavy smoking.
