Tongzhou Milkvetch Seed — Safety & Interactions

Tong Ji Li · Semen Astragali Complanati

Contraindications

  • Damp-heat urinary or gynecologic disorders rather than deficiency leakage
  • Clearly excess patterns without underlying weakness

Cautions

  • Tong Ji Li should be matched to deficient leakage and weakness, not to acute infection or burning urinary symptoms.
  • Naming can vary by region and supplier, so authenticated sourcing still matters.
  • MSK page not found - drug interaction data not available from Memorial Sloan Kettering integrative medicine database
