Main benefits
Pattern identification: Traditionally used for the TCM pattern of Qi and Blood Deficiency, especially involving the Spleen and Heart, where the production and circulation of nutritive substances are weak.
Name and core idea: The name 八珍汤 means “Eight Treasures Decoction,” referring to its combination of four Qi‑tonifying and four Blood‑nourishing herbs to rebuild overall vitality in depleted patients.
Foundation from two formulas: Conceptually, it unites Si Jun Zi Tang (Four Gentlemen Decoction — Qi tonics) with Si Wu Tang (Four Substances Decoction — Blood tonics), creating a single prescription that addresses both Qi and Blood at the same time.
Qi‑tonifying component: The Qi side typically includes Ren Shen/Dang Shen (Ginseng/Codonopsis), Bai Zhu (Atractylodes), Fu Ling (Poria), and Zhi Gan Cao (Honey‑fried Licorice) to strengthen Spleen Qi, support digestion, and enhance the generation of postnatal Qi.
Blood‑nourishing component: The Blood side uses Shu Di Huang (Prepared Rehmannia), Dang Gui (Angelica sinensis), Bai Shao (White Peony), and Chuan Xiong to enrich and move Blood so that it can adequately nourish the Heart, Liver, and channels.
Typical TCM presentation: In classical descriptions, this pattern includes signs such as pale or sallow complexion, fatigue, shortness of breath on exertion, palpitations, dizziness, and a pale tongue with a thin pulse, all interpreted as manifestations of Qi and Blood insufficiency rather than specific Western diseases
Use in women’s and recovery patterns: Traditionally favored in gynecological contexts (e.g., after menstruation, childbirth, or chronic Blood loss) and in general recovery after long illness or taxation, when both Qi and Blood have been consumed.
Classical heritage: Recorded in the Song‑dynasty text Tai Ping Hui Min He Ji Ju Fang (Formulary of the Bureau of People’s Welfare Pharmacies), Ba Zhen Tang later became a base formula for many “Qi‑and‑Blood‑tonifying” modifications in internal medicine and gynecology.
