Lysimachia (gold coin grass)

• Latin name：Herba Lysimachiae
• Common names：Jinqiancao; folk “stone-expelling grass”
• Nature：Sweet, bland; slightly cold
• Part used：Aerial parts

• Drains damp, promotes urination, clears heat-toxin (syndrome differentiation required)
• Heat stranguria, stone stranguria with painful urination; damp-heat jaundice as adjunct care
• Often used adjunctively for urinary/biliary stones—helps move small stones, not a “dissolving” drug

Harvest in summer–autumn, dry. Common tea dose about 30 g per dose; a separate 200 g medicinal-diet formula exists in literature—physician-guided only.

Trailing stems; opposite leaves; yellow flowers. Do not confuse with other herbs called “money grass”; avoid long-term solo use if spleen–stomach are cold.
