Abstract

Chronic Urticaria (CU), a common skin disorder known as Yin Zhen in Chinese medicine, is characterized by recurrent, pruritic, pink-to-red edematous lesions and wheals on the skin. Xiao-Feng Powder (XFP, meaning Wind-Dispersing Powder), is reported to be one of the most frequently used Chinese herbal formulae for CU. In this study, we aim to investigate the effectiveness and safety of modified Xiao-Feng Powder (mXFP) for the treatment of CU.
