Wu Ling San is effective in inducing diuresis and seepage of dampness (promoting the flow of water to get rid of dampness), warming yang and transforming qi (warming yang qi in the body); it works as a treatment for oedema caused by yang’s inability to transform qi (the body’s qi is blocked), and the internal stagnation of water-dampness (water-dampness stays in the body).
Wu Ling San is the name of a traditional Chinese medicine formula composed of Poria, Fried Atractylodes, and Zedoary. It is mainly used for the treatment of water retention syndrome (a type of syndrome manifested by unsmooth urination, bloating of the abdomen, thirst for water, vomiting after drinking, etc.) with headache and slight heat, thirst for drinking, or even vomiting after drinking water, diarrhea, white fur on the tongue, and floating or numberless pulse.
If you need to use Wu Ling San, it is recommended that you consult a Chinese medicine practitioner in a hospital and choose it after the Chinese medicine practitioner has identified the symptoms, and you should not purchase the medicine blindly, so as not to affect the effect.
