ANALYSIS OF FORMULA: Being bitter flavor and cold nature with aromatic property, bovine gall-stone acts as the
main herb to clear away heat and expel phlegm for resolving mass and swelling. With pungent flavor and warm nature
and as the assistant herb, She Xiang (musk) can activate blood for reliving pain. The cooperation of She Xiang
(musk)and Xi Huang (bovine gall-stone) plays the role of resolving phlegm and mass but avoiding the disadvantage of
assisting the fire poison. Ru Xiang (Frankincense) and Mo Yao (myrrh) act as the adjuvant herbs to activate blood for
relieving pain, subduing swelling and promoting granulation. The cooked Huang Mi (glutinous millet) can harmonize the
stomach qi while rice wine can activate qi and blood to clear collaterals. They act as the dispatcher herbs.

mammary cancer, multiple abscesses and medulitis with symptoms of feverish swelling and pain, red tongue, slippery
rapid pulse.
But it should be cautious when applying to deficiency of both qi and blood after perforation with dripping of pus.
