Fritillaria Thunbergii Bulb Slices (Fritillaria Thunbergii Miq.)
Fritillaria Thunbergii Bulb Slices (Fritillaria thunbergii Miq.) are thinly sliced sections of the dried bulb known in Traditional Chinese Medicine as Zhe Bei Mu (浙贝母). This herb is valued for its cooling, phlegm-resolving, and swelling-reducing properties, particularly in cases involving heat-induced coughs, nodules, and inflammatory swellings.
Traditionally used to clear heat and transform phlegm, Zhe Bei Mu is milder and better suited for chronic, lingering respiratory conditions with signs of internal heat, such as dry coughs with yellow phlegm, throat discomfort, or swollen lymph nodes. It is also included in formulas targeting mastitis, neck swellings, or lung congestion caused by heat-phlegm accumulation.
In decoction, these slices are often combined with herbs like Xia Ku Cao (Prunella) or Ban Xia (Pinellia) to balance both phlegm and qi flow, and to address firm nodules or stagnation in the chest and throat. Zhe Bei Mu is often distinguished from Chuan Bei Mu (Fritillaria cirrhosa) in that it has a stronger heat-clearing action, though less moistening.
Each batch of Fritillaria Thunbergii Bulb Slices is carefully selected and processed to retain potency and integrity, making it a key botanical for use in respiratory, lymphatic, and detoxifying herbal formulas.
