Hot, inflamed conditions like herpes, sinus infections, or damp-heat eczema
Coptis Purge Fire Formula
Supports Relief From
Coptis Purge Fire Formula addresses acute flare-ups of heat, redness, and inflammation — whether it shows up as a sore throat, urinary burning, painful skin eruptions, or red, irritated eyes. It’s a go-to for strong, excess-type symptoms that point to underlying toxicity or damp heat.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this pattern reflects blazing fire in the organs, often affecting the liver, stomach, bladder, and lungs. When fire and toxins accumulate, they may generate pus, swelling, itching, or a burning sensation. This formula helps clear that excess heat, purge toxins, and dry dampness — restoring clarity and cooling the system from within.
How It Works Holistically
Coptis Purge Fire Formula combines three classical formulas used to address intense internal heat and toxic accumulation. Its foundation includes Coptis (huang lian), Isatis (ban lan gen), Phellodendron (huang bai), and Forsythia (lian qiao) — potent heat-clearing herbs with broad-spectrum antibacterial and antiviral effects.
Additional botanicals like Gardenia (zhi zi) and Sophora (ku shen) help dry dampness, cool inflammation, and reduce irritation or discharge. Bupleurum (chai hu) and Peony (bai shao) circulate Qi and blood while soothing the liver. Dong Quai adds a harmonizing and tonifying influence. Together, these herbs provide a comprehensive approach to intense heat presentations in the skin, sinuses, bladder, and upper respiratory tract.
When Coptis Purge Fire Formula Is Right for You
This formula is ideal when inflammation feels hot, angry, and acute — such as burning urination, sore throat, skin eruptions, or red itchy eyes. It’s also helpful during herpes outbreaks, acute sinus or ear infections, and other excess-type flare-ups that need a strong cooling intervention. Best for individuals with robust constitutions who can tolerate its cold nature. Use for short periods during acute symptoms and reduce or discontinue if it causes diarrhea.
