Dendrobium also has pharmacologic effects that include analgesic (pain-killing) and anti-fever effects.

Shi Hu (石斛, Dendrobium nobile) is a prized herb in Traditional Chinese Medicine used primarily to nourish Yin, generate fluids, and clear deficiency heat. It is traditionally indicated for symptoms such as dry mouth, thirst, a parched throat, and low-grade fever associated with Yin deficiency of the Stomach and Kidney. It is also used to support eye health and strengthen the lower back and knees when Kidney Yin is depleted.
Add the recommended number of drops to warm water or a beverage of your choice and drink as directed by your healthcare practitioner. Because potency can vary between liquid extracts, it is important to consult a qualified TCM practitioner or healthcare provider to determine the appropriate dosage for your individual condition.
Shi Hu is often distinguished from other Yin tonics like Mai Men Dong (麦门冬, Ophiopogon japonicus) and Yu Zhu (玉竹, Polygonatum odoratum) by its particularly strong ability to generate fluids and clear heat in the Stomach channel, making it especially suited for dryness and heat signs in the digestive system. Unlike Shu Di Huang (熟地黄), which is cloying and heavily tonifies Kidney Yin, Shi Hu is lighter and more easily tolerated by those with Stomach weakness. It is also one of the few herbs traditionally considered beneficial for preserving vision and supporting long-term vitality.

It would be unfair to to write a review since I have something else interfering with my condition right now and I don’t feel I’ve noticed anything new while taking it so far. I did stop once the other problem began. I’ll have to amend this review when I can.
