kuxin pingni granule

Kuxin Pingni granule is a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) formulation developed by the **Jiangsu Province Hospital of Integration of Chinese and Western Medicine** for the treatment of chronic heart failure (CHF). The formula is based on the TCM principle of using "bitter and acrid" (Kuxin) herbs to regulate Qi and fluid metabolism, with "Pingni" referring to the suppression of adverse Qi flow. It is typically administered as an adjunctive therapy alongside guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) for patients with NYHA class II–IV heart failure. Clinical evaluation of the granule focuses on its ability to improve functional capacity, enhance cardiac function (measured by LVEF), and reduce biomarkers of heart failure such as NT-proBNP.
