Nudiflora Beautyberry Leaf

Traditional Use

Primary Actions

• Stops bleeding and astringes leakage - Luo Hua Zi Zhu Ye is used for traumatic bleeding, uterine bleeding, hemoptysis, and other hot or stasis-linked bleeding patterns.
• Clears heat and removes toxicity - traditional use includes sore throat, boils, swollen lesions, and inflamed tissue with heat signs.
• Disperses blood stasis and reduces swelling - it is also chosen for trauma and swelling where bleeding and inflammation overlap.

Secondary Actions

• The import mixed a Taiwan beautyberry-style English label with the pharmacopoeial Latin `Folium Callicarpae Nudiflorae`; current medicinal literature and indexed leaf studies align better with the nudiflora leaf identity, so the names are normalized here while leaving the slug untouched.
• Trade and folk naming within the `Zi Zhu` family can be loose, so species-level identity matters more here than the generic beautyberry common name suggests.

Classic Formulas

• Luo Hua Zi Zhu Ye powders and decoctions - traditional hemostatic use for internal or traumatic bleeding.
• Luo Hua Zi Zhu Ye with Bai Ji or Ce Bai Ye - bleeding-control logic when heat and damaged tissue coexist.
• Luo Hua Zi Zhu Ye with Jin Yin Hua or Pu Gong Ying - toxin-clearing and swelling-reducing combinations for sores and throat inflammation.

Classical References

• Beautyberry-leaf traditions describe the drug as bitter and astringent with bleeding-control, toxin-clearing, and swelling-reducing functions.
• This record follows the medicinal leaf identity supported by the current Latin and leaf-specific modern literature rather than preserving the imported English label uncritically.
• Because several Callicarpa species circulate medicinally, this page keeps the taxonomy note explicit instead of assuming all `Zi Zhu` names are interchangeable.
