Jianpi Qushi Huatan Fang

Jianpi Qushi Huatan Fang (健脾祛湿化痰方) is a traditional Chinese medicine formula designed to strengthen the spleen, dispel dampness, and resolve phlegm. The formula typically contains herbal ingredients such as Poria (茯苓), Chinese yam (山药), Coix seed (薏苡仁), malt (麦芽), and dried tangerine peel (陈皮). These herbs work synergistically to improve spleen function, promote fluid metabolism, remove excess dampness from the body, and transform or eliminate phlegm. The mechanism of action is based on traditional Chinese medicine theory rather than modern molecular targets; it involves enhancing digestive function, promoting diuresis, regulating qi movement, and resolving pathological fluids. It is primarily indicated for symptoms associated with spleen deficiency and internal dampness—such as poor appetite, abdominal distension, loose stools or diarrhea, fatigue, and sensations of heaviness—which may also be accompanied by excessive phlegm production[2]. This formula is suitable for long-term use in individuals with a constitution prone to spleen deficiency with damp accumulation.
