Overview

Shizhen formula is a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) herbal preparation developed by Shuguang Hospital Affiliated with Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is specifically indicated for the treatment of anal eczema, particularly the 'damp-heat' pattern according to TCM diagnostics. The formula is designed to alleviate symptoms such as pruritus and skin lesions by modulating inflammatory pathways, specifically reducing the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines including interleukin-4 (IL-4), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α). Clinical evaluation of the formula focuses on its efficacy in improving the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) and the Dermatologic Quality of Life Index (DLQI) while monitoring for recurrence and side effects.
