Pu Yin
Unknown
☯ TCM Properties
Dispels Heat, resolves toxicity, promotes urination, kills intestinal parasites and removes accumulations
Botanical Description
Pu Yin is not a clearly established entry in mainstream Chinese materia medica such as Bensky's text or the Chinese Pharmacopoeia, and the pinyin alone is insufficient to allow confident species-level identification. The two characters can render multiple distinct compound names in folk usage, including potential references to grape (pu) wine residues or to silvery mineral preparations, but no consistent botanical referent appears in authoritative sources. In accordance with the project's no-fabrication rule, all plant-fields are left null and the substance is provisionally classed within the TCM tradition pending further clarification from a specialist source.
