Description	This [formula] is [for] internal dryness of the Lungs due to Lung and Kidney yin deficiency. Yin deficiency generates internal heat which rises to cause a dry and sore throat. Yin deficiency may be caused either by a chronic disorder of the Lungs which injures the yin and fluids, or by any condition which injures the Kidney yin. Heat from deficiency 'steams' the delicate, uppermost organ (the Lungs), and interferes with the regulation of Lung qi, producing coughing and wheezing. Heat from deficiency also 'scorches' the collaterals of the Lungs, leading to blood-streaked sputum. The other signs and symptoms are classic indications of heat from deficiency. --Bensky: Chinese Herbal Medicine Formulas & Strategies.*
