Functions:
Nasal allergy, or allergic rhinitis, is a health concern affecting more and more people in modern societies. Our immune system seems to get more responsive to particles (such as pollens) surrounding us and generate allergic reactions. In the process, antibodies, primarily immunoglobin E (IgE), attach to cells in the nasal mucous membrane which then releases substances including histamine. Histamine opens the blood vessels and causes swollen membranes. The result is sneezing, itchy nose, and congestion.

Many get allergy relief with common antihistamine allergy medicines like Benadryl and Claritin. However, these medicines often cause drowsiness and other side effects. They often become less effective over time.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has long recognized the symptoms of allergic rhinitis and attributes it to the insufficiency of Qi (Chi) energy of the lung and the subsequently weakened protection of the respiratory track from the foreign substances (wind and toxins). Te Xiao Bi Min Gan Wan (Pe Min Kan Wan) combines multiple Chinese herbs such as magnolia and xanthium to disperse wind and expel toxins to relieve inflammation. Moreover, it dissolves phlegm, clears discharge and thus opens the nasal passages. Te Xiao Bi Min Gan Wan (Pe Min Kan Wan) can be used for rhinitis, allergy, chronic rhinitis, rhinocleisis, rhinorrhea.
