Live editorial status

This record was published without a human-review gate by site policy. Automated flags at publication: no primary ingredient taxon link, quality score below 70, not herbal remedy, not marked promotable, critical hazard archive only. Publication makes the source extraction inspectable; it does not verify identity, completeness, efficacy or safety.

Modern safety boundary

  • Historical formula: ingredient identity, strength, contamination risk and terminology may differ from modern practice.
  • Do not use this record as dosage or treatment guidance. Every ingredient, route and contraindication requires qualified editorial verification.
  • The historical use wording does not establish modern clinical effectiveness.
  • Automated review flags: high risk botanical, pediatric or infant use.
