Yin qiao pian is a famous formula of traditional Chinese medicine which intervenes at the first signs of cold snap. It fights against the manifestations of the presence of perverse energies in the organism and protects the body from the attacks of toxic Heat and Wind.

In TCM, the Wind is the main cause of winter ailments. It combines with Heat to attack the body from the outside and open the door to discomforts such as cough, fever and headache. Yin qiao pian fights against its manifestations by dispersing the Wind and driving out the toxic Heat. In addition, the formula has a lubricating action on the respiratory tract which allows it to effectively relieve the throat.
