Yi Yi Ren Tang is a herbal blend designed to treat the Chinese Medical problem of Wind and Damp - particulalry in joints. In Western medicine, Yi Yi Ren Tang may be helpful for animals who have joint swelling. Animals with elbow problems or immune mediated joint problems may benefit. 

Currently in Australia, certain traditional Chinese herbal blends are only allowed to be dispensed by a registered veterinarian.

As with all Traditional Chinese Herbal blends, the best results are likely to occur when prescribed by an integrative veterinarian who can examine your animal in person. Telehealth consultations however, can be used when access to an appropriate veterinarian is difficult or not possible.

If you would like to access the Integrative Veterinary Products Herbal blends, please book an appointment to access a telehealth (phone or video) appointment with Dr Tanya Meares BVSc.

Before the appointment, you will be asked to submit a form with background information about your animal and their health issues.

The cost of the 15-30 minute telehealth appointment is $80 but you will receive a discount of $40 on your first order of any an herbal blend in the shop (if any are suggested).

How it Works

Yi Yi Ren Tang is a tradional Chinese herbal blend designed to treat a Wind invasion into the body. Animals with a Wind invasion often have cold aches and pains and joint problems. Yi Yi Ren Tang acts to increase peripheral circulation and "warm' the body whilst increasing insulin sensitivy and reducing Damp.

In western terms, joint swelling is considered a Damp condition.

It is advised to start on a lower dose and work up to the full dose over a week or so to check it is a good fit for your dog. The above dosing guidelines can be adjusted. For animals that have had benefit from the herbs, a lower dose may be required to maintain or wean off the formula. Conversely, animals may be given more frequent or higher doses when the effect is required more quickly and the formula choice is certain.

Ways to get herbs into pets.
Most dogs with a good appetite will simply eat herbal mixtures in their food. If animals have a weak appetite or are otherwise picky with their choices there area few other ways to entice them.
Mix herbs with a small amount of a high value treat – eg mince, sardines, cheese.
Mix herbs into a bone broth and pour over food.
If owners are still having trouble, gelatin food capsules can be bought inexpensively and herbs put into them. Owners then need to give the capsule either directly into the mouth or again, mixed in food.
