Overview

YiCeng plaster (Yi Ceng Gao) is a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) topical preparation developed and utilized by Kunshan Third People's Hospital for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis and other rheumatic conditions. Formulated as a plaster for external application, it is a hospital-made preparation (院内制剂) that typically incorporates medicinal ants (such as *Polyrhachis vicina*) along with various herbal extracts intended to dispel wind, remove dampness, and alleviate pain. In clinical research, YiCeng plaster has been evaluated for its efficacy in reducing pain and improving joint function in patients with knee osteoarthritis, often compared against standard topical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like diclofenac gel.
