Centipedegrass has no stone-discharging properties, so it cannot be used to treat stones.
Centipedegrass is the whole grass or rhizome of Centipedegrass, a plant of the genus Centipedegrass in the family of Fenugreek. It has a light, bitter flavor and is cool in nature. It enters the liver, large intestine and bladder meridians. It can expel wind and remove dampness, relax tendons and activate collaterals, detoxify and kill insects. It is used for rheumatic paralysis, lumbago, bruises, colds, dysentery, carbuncle (red, swollen and painful breasts, poor milk discharge, and ultimately septic diseases), sores, scabies, ascariasis, snake bites.
Because of the cold nature of Centipede Herb, it should not be taken by people with cold spleen and stomach (weak and cold spleen and stomach).
Patients are advised to use the medicine under the guidance of a doctor and should not take the medicine on their own to avoid delaying their condition.
