Nosebleed is categorized as epistaxis (nosebleed) in traditional Chinese medicine, and Lotus Leaf Pill can treat epistaxis caused by blood heat, and should be used in accordance with medical advice.
It has the efficacy of cooling blood and stopping bleeding. It is used for epistaxis (nosebleed), hemoptysis, hematochezia, blood in stool, blood in urine, and metrorrhagia (excessive menstrual flow or dribbling) caused by blood heat.
Adverse effects and contraindications of Lotus Leaf Pill have not been clarified, and its use for the treatment of diseases should be reasonably guided by doctor’s evidence.
Apart from blood heat, epistaxis may also be caused by fire-heat upward disturbance of the liver meridian and failure of the spleen to regulate blood (the spleen is unable to regulate blood), etc. Lotus Leaf Pill is unable to treat epistaxis caused by reasons other than blood heat.
Therefore, epistaxis patients should take Lotus Leaf Pill under the guidance of a doctor and should not take the medicine without authorization in order to avoid adverse effects.
