Guifu Dihuang Pill consists of Cortex Cinnamomi, Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata (processed), Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, Fructus Corni (processed), Cortex Moutan, Rhizoma Dioscoreae, Poria and Alismatis Rhizoma. Has the effects of warming and tonifying kidney yang. Used for deficiency of kidney yang, cold waist and knees, unfavorable or excessive urination, phlegm, asthma and cough.

Guifu Dihuang Pill has the function of warming yang and tonifying kidney, which is very suitable for diseases caused by deficiency of kidney elements. The symptoms of kidney deficiency are as follows: decreased kidney function, decreased sexual interest, "sheep's tail" (sheep = yang, tail = flaccidity) or not hard enough to finish sexual life. "jujube machinery" (jujube = morning, machinery = discharge), nocturnal emission. Among them, cinnamon and aconite play an important role in warming and tonifying kidney yang, but the toxicity of aconite is a safety factor that we can't ignore. Let's introduce the toxicity of aconite.

symptoms of aconite poisoning: burning mouth, numbness (from fingers to the whole body), nausea, possible vomiting, salivation, fatigue, dilated pupils, dyspnea, weak and slow pulse, pale face, cold and sticky skin, and sudden death. The main component of aconite is aconitine, which is extremely toxic. Processing can remove some toxicity of aconite, but it is still toxic, so clinical use should be cautious.

although aconite root is a good medicine for warming and tonifying kidney yang, it will become a terrible poison to the kidney if taken in excess. The nephrotoxicity of aconite root is mainly manifested in tubulointerstitial nephritis, glomerulonephritis, nephrotic syndrome and even renal failure, and in severe cases, proteinuria, hematuria and acute renal failure. Therefore, I would like to remind you that you should never take other traditional Chinese medicine preparations containing aconite at the same time.
