Jade Windscreen Powder

Chinese Prescription: Yu Ping Fang San

English Translation: Jade Windscreen Powder

Formula Type: Stabilize the Exterior and the Lungs

Actions: Augments the qi, stabilizes the exterior, & stops sweating.

Indications: Aversion to drafts, spontaneous sweating, recurrent colds, a shiny, pale complexion, a pale tongue with a white coating, & a floating, deficient, & soft pulse. This is deficiency of the exterior with weak & unstable protective qi.

Contraindications: Although the formula disperses pathogenic wind-dampness, it is unsuitable for treating excess patterns. Its focus is on preventing pathogenic qi from entering the body, not on dispersing pathogenic qi from the body. Unless significantly modified, it is thus unsuited for releasing pathogenic qi from the exterior in patterns of excess, even where such excess occurs against a background of qi deficiency.
