Schizonepta Stem/Bud is an acrid herb with warming properties that releases the exterior and expels wind. Renowned for its ability to bring rashes to the surface and relieve itching, it also possesses hemostatic qualities, staunching bleeding when applied. Additionally, it is utilized in the treatment of abscess sores.


Excerpted from Bensky: Chinese Herbal Medicine Materia Medica, 3rd ed.
