It is famous for being carried in their first aid kits by the Vietcong during the Vietnam War. It has been used by Chinese soldiers for hundreds of years. In China, its reputation is similar to that of penicillin in the U.S.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Function<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>Stops bleeding, dispels blood stasis, disperses swelling, clears heat, resolves toxins, relives pain.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Indications<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>Use internally for swelling, bruising or bleeding in acute trauma. Also useful in other bleeding disorders including postpartum hemorrhage, nosebleed, blood in urine or stool, bleeding ulcer, and menorrhagia. Can be used internally for infected wounds or for postpartum blood stasis. Also used for wind-damp bi syndromes (arthritis and rheumatism), and promoting circulation in the muscles. Also to reduce swelling in sore throat.<\/p>\n<p>Apply topically as an emergency or first aid medicine to stop bleeding in traumatic wounds, and to prevent infection. This product is antibacterial as well as homeostatic. Cuts heal quickly with even a single application, and with a butterfly bandage it can help seal smaller wounds that might otherwise require stitches.<\/p>\n<p>Yunnan Baiyao is useful for any type of open wound and any kind of surgery. It reduces recovery time for surgery by half because it mends injured blood vessels. It does not interfere with Western sedative drugs, so can be used the same day as surgery. By immediately activating blood circulation, it helps resolve bleeding, pain, and swelling. It heals oozing wounds and damaged blood vessels, while expelling pus and counteracting toxins.<\/p>\n<p>It is also used for traumatic swelling or bruising, or for other blood disorders including thrombocytopenic purpura and leukemia.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike Western pain drugs, Yunnan Baiyao does not turn off pain centers in the brain, but instead facilitates circulation, bringing oxygen to the injury. Cuts heal quickly with even a single application, and with a butterfly bandage it can help seal smaller wounds that might otherwise require stitches. In various clinical studies, it has shown to reduce clotting time by 33% to 55%.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"Indications\" name=\"Indications\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h5><a href=\"#Top\" target=\"_self\">Back to Top<\/a><\/h5>\n<h3>Indications (Symptoms and Conditions)<\/h3>\n<table border=\"1\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"5\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"col\" align=\"left\" width=\"67%\">\n<div align=\"center\">Internal Indications:<\/div>\n<\/th>\n<th scope=\"col\" align=\"left\" width=\"33%\">\n<div align=\"center\">External Indications:<\/div>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">\n<ul>\n<li>Chronic stomachache, gastric &amp; bleeding ulcers<\/li>\n<li>Sore and swelling throat<\/li>\n<li>Gynecological blood stasis, including amenorrhea, irregular menstruation, menorrhagia, uterine bleeding and leucorrhoea,and postpartum blood stasis.<\/li>\n<li>Hemoptysis caused by bronchitis, pneumonia, bronchiectasia, and tuberculosis<\/li>\n<li>Nosebleed<\/li>\n<li>Blood in urine or stool.<\/li>\n<li>Hemangiosarcoma, nasal tumors, and other bleeding tumors in dogs, cats, and horses<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">\n<ul>\n<li>Acute traumatic bleeding<\/li>\n<li>Knife wounds<\/li>\n<li>Gunshot wounds<\/li>\n<li>Hot or oozing sores<\/li>\n<li>Poisoned sores<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"2\" valign=\"top\">\n<div align=\"center\">Contraindications<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"2\" valign=\"top\">Use is contraindicated in individuals with allergic reaction to Yunnan Baiyao.<br \/>\nIt is also contraindicated internally for pregnant women.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><a id=\"Hemangiosarcoma\" name=\"Hemangiosarcoma\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h5><a href=\"#Top\" target=\"_self\">Back to Top<\/a><\/h5>\n<h3>About Hemangiosarcoma and Bleeding Tumors in Animals<\/h3>\n<p>Hemangiosarcoma is a very deadly cancer in dogs, mainly Goldens and German Shepherds, which generally isn\u2019t diagnosed until the dog collapses or dies. This sort of cancer is genetic, hereditary, and it runs in bloodlines. It causes a tumor in the heart (also seen in the spleen, and other organs) that leads to fluid build-up in the pericardium. Yunnan Baiyao has been used successfully to relieve the fluid build up and help with the dog\u2019s comfort level. Typical dosage: 2 capsules, twice a day, with food.<\/p>\n<p>For general Canine Cancer information:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a title=\"national canine cancer foundation\" href=\"http:\/\/www.wearethecure.org\/the-road-from-despair-to-hope\" target=\"_blank\">National Canine Cancer Foundation<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a title=\"Canine Cancer Awareness org\" href=\"http:\/\/caninecancerawareness.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/caninecancerawareness.org\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a title=\"path with paws cancer care\" href=\"http:\/\/pathwithpaws.com\/cancer-care\/\" target=\"_blank\">A Path with Paws<\/a>: Integrative and holistic methods for treating cancer in dogs and cats Lena McCullough, DVM and Certified Veterinary Acupuncturist maintains a comprehensive blog with a wealth of holistic information on cancer treatment and care.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>TESTIMONIAL (Veterinary):<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYunnan Baiyao has been found to be beneficial in both our oncology and emergency patients for many reasons. Patients with excessive bleeding caused by trauma, hemorrhagic pericardial effusion, bleeding skin tumors, and hemorrhagic abdominal effusion may benefit from this Chinese herbal supplement. Patients with single or multiple internal masses are prone to bleeding or can sometimes rupture causing a large amount of blood to build up in the abdomen. The patients we expect to benefit the most from this product include: hemangiosarcoma, heart based tumors, liver tumors, mast cell tumors, any bleeding nasal tumor, and some types of melanomas. Unfortunately most tumors have the potential to bleed either due to their type and\/or location. We have been using both the oral and topical form of the Yunnan Baiyao.<\/p>\n<p>The red pills are used for acute bleeding or discovery of acute bleeding. We have recently started using the red pill on the day of surgery, such as stable splenectomies. If the red pill is used in acute emergencies, we will start the regular capsules 2-6 hours later. We dose our pets as follows: Cats and dogs &lt;10 lbs 1EOD, dogs 11-20 lbs 1 every 24 hours, 21-89 lbs 1 every 12 hours, &gt;90 lbs 2 every 12 hours.<\/p>\n<p>With some cases as they progress in their disease, the tumors grow larger, or the bleeding\/oozing is more frequent we may have the owners increase the frequency to every 6-8 hours. \u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tessa Bowers, LVT, VTS (Anesthesia)<\/p>\n<p>Vienna, VA.<\/p>\n<p>Editor\u2019s Note: These testimonials are provided as anecdotal evidence of<br \/>\nsuccessful treatment using Yunnan Baiyao. The dosages stated are not<br \/>\nclinically supported\/tested by Western medicine\/pharmaceutical standards<br \/>\nnor endorsed by the manufacturer (who provides no dosage information<br \/>\nfor animals).<\/p>\n<p>TESTIMONIAL (Dog Owner):<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDear Suigetsu[Modern Herb] Shop,<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s with a very heavy heart, that we are letting you know that our very special Golden Retreiver, Saige, passed away this morning peacefully here at home with both of us by her side.<\/p>\n<p>Saige was diagnosed with hemangiosarcomo October 24, 2009 by a highly regarded specialized vet hospital. There was a tumor on her heart that caused blood to collect between the heart and the pericardium. The blood was drawn off from the sack between her heart and the pericardium. Her life expectancy according to the vet at that time was 5 minutes to 3 months maximum. She was with us 4 months \u2013 and those 4 months were very good \u2013 normal activity, eating and all bodily functions performing perfectly normal. We are of firm belief that the capsules \u2013 Yunnan Baiyao \u2013 had a very positive affect on her condition. We\u2019re of strong conviction that Yunnan Baiyo\u2019s affect on controlling bleeding was a strong factor in her being with us as long as she was \u2013 especially with her being her happy \u2013 playful \u2013 loving self right up to early this morning.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you so much for your excellent customer service \u2013 prompt shipments, care and concern \u2013 during this very trying time for us.<\/p>\n<p>Regards,<\/p>\n<p>Bruce and Diane Fowler\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"Dosages\" name=\"Dosages\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h5><a href=\"#Top\" target=\"_self\">Back to Top<\/a><\/h5>\n<h3>Suggested Dosages and How to Use<\/h3>\n<p>Dosages (human) according to the manufacturer:<\/p>\n<p>Internally:<\/p>\n<p>Take 0.25 to 0.5 gram (1 to 2 capsules), 4x day. In general, not for long term use.<\/p>\n<p>Do not exceed 0.5 g, once every four hours.<\/p>\n<p>In cases of bleeding, mix with water and drink.<\/p>\n<p>In cases of swelling without bleeding, mix with wine.<\/p>\n<p>Children age 2 to 5 years, 0.03 g each time.<\/p>\n<p>Children over 5 years, 0.06 g each time.<\/p>\n<p>PROHIBITED INTERNALLY DURING PREGNANCY.<\/p>\n<p>Before surgery: Take 1 red pill and 2 capsules.<\/p>\n<p>After surgery: Take 2 capsules 2x daily for several days. Do not take Yunnan Baiyao for more than 1-2 weeks. It can be weakening over a period of time. If necessary, combine with a tonic formula such as mushroom extracts or neutral ginsengs.<\/p>\n<p>Externally:<\/p>\n<p>Apply directly to bleeding wound (clean first, and bandage afterwards).<\/p>\n<p>In deep or wide wounds, squeeze cut together, pour powder on, and apply pressure or keep closed for 1 to 2 minutes, or until bleeding has stopped.<\/p>\n<p>About the red pill: The manufacturer recommends that one take the single red pill (bao xian zi) be taken in cases of serious wounds or bleeding. This is used to prevent shock from blood loss. It does not stop bleeding. Use only one red pill per day. Ingredients are unknown. The red pill is very small and located in a tiny dimple in the center of the foil sheet of capsules (1 red pill per sheet of 16 capsules). In the bottle of powder, the red pill is encased in the wad of cotton found when you open the bottle.<\/p>\n<p>Notes: Avoid consuming cold foods, like fish, broad beans, citrus (sour) and dairy. Yunnan Baiyao has a warming quality while these foods have a cooling quality. Cold foods require strong digestion as well. Therefore to achieve the best results when taking Yunnan Baiyao, they should not be combined together. Other hot consumables, like alcohol, chicken and goat meat are indicated as promoting the healing effects. If taking Yunnan Baiyao makes you dizzy or upsets your stomach, take it with warm soup. Take with a sip of wine to treat chronic gastritis.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"Animals\" name=\"Animals\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Veterinary Application:<\/p>\n<p>(recommendation from this article<br \/>\nYunnan Baiyao-Where\u2019s the Clinical Evidence?

The following dose recommendations have been gathered from a variety of sources, including VIN postings, the CAVM list discussions, textbooks and continuing education talks:<\/p>\n<p>Yunnan Baiyao is gaining popularity as a herbal medicine to support<br \/>\nEIPH in horses. The following information on dosage for race horses was copied from www.racetowin.ca. It has not been verified and is provided only for its informational content.<\/p>\n<p>Suggested Use: The day before competition, give 1 full bottle of the Yunnan Baiyao powder, AM &amp; PM, but save the red pills. On the morning of competition give 1 full bottle of the powder again saving the red pill. Then at the Lasix shot use the 4th bottle of Yunnan Baiyao powder. At this time give all the 4 red pills that you have saved to the horse.<\/p>\n<p>Special Note: If the horse has bled thru everything that vets, herbs, vitamins, acupuncture can do, you may try 2 bottles at a time.<\/p>\n<table border=\"1\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"5\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"col\">Animal<\/th>\n<th scope=\"col\">Suggested Dosage<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td rowspan=\"5\">Dog<\/td>\n<td>open capsule and sprinkle on superficial wounds, bleeding tumors, etc.one (250 mg) capsule per 10 kg, once to twice a day<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>one capsule per 5 kg daily, given as divided doses, if possible 1\/4 tsp per 5-7 kg, OR 60-75 mg\/kg, at least once a day75-100 mg\/kg daily, given as divided doses<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>&lt;15 kg = 1 capsule P.O. twice a day<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>15-30 kg = 2 capsules P.O. twice a day<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>&gt;30 = 2 capsules P.O. three times a day<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Cat<\/td>\n<td>open capsule and sprinkle on superficial wounds, bleeding tumors, etc. 1\/2 -1 capsule P.O. twice a day, adjusting appropriately<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td rowspan=\"2\">Bird<\/td>\n<td>(400-1000gm) open capsule and sprinkle on superficial wounds, bleeding tumors, etc.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>one (250 mg) capsule dissolved in water, given by oral gavage, once a day<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td rowspan=\"4\">Horse<\/td>\n<td>open capsule and sprinkle on superficial wounds, bleeding tumors, etc.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1 bottle (4 gm) P.O. three times a day with water<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2 bottles P.O. twice a day for six days, then 1 bottle twice a day for six days<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Side Effects:<\/p>\n<p>There are no known side effects when Yunnan Baiyao is taken as recommended.

There are a couple of reasons. The FDA requires full disclosure of the formula on the packaging. Because the formula is a Chinese National Treasure and not disclosed, this is problematic! Another reason creating difficulty with sales is that the leaflet enclosed with the product makes many claims that would classify Yunnan Baiyao as a drug (i.e. stops bleeding, shrinks tumors, heals wounds, has an anti-inflammatory action, heals ulcers, etc. The package itself &#8211; that is the blue box commonly imported directly from China &#8211; additionally makes no statement about this being a &#8220;Dietary Supplement&#8221; and does not meet the standards required for labeling by the FDA. If it is to be classified as a drug, it must undergo all the rigorous testing required by the FDA. If it is to be classified as a &#8220;Dietary Supplement&#8221;, the labeling must change and the claims withdrawn.<br \/>\nA bit of past history:<br \/>\nFor many years, Prince of Peace Corporation imported and redistributed Yunnan Baiyao formulas in a manner that satisfied the FDA&#8217;s requirements. For whatever reason, the ceased doing this some time around 2012-2013. There are still a few of these &#8216;blue&#8217; boxes around, but they are coming up on their expiration date.<br \/>\nIt is said that Solstice Medicine Corporation has begun the process of taking over the distribution, but it remains to be seen when they will actually have any. Calls to the company result in vague answers.<br \/>\nDue to high demand, the price of Yunnan Baiyao has sky-rocketed in the U.S. However, it is this author&#8217;s considered opinion that it can be obtained at a reasonable price and minimal risk by ordering a direct shipment from China. You certainly take a risk of your package being seized by customs, however that risk is small, given the millions of packages that flow through customs on a daily basis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Frequently Asked Questions: What is Yunnan Baiyao?
