How it works:
What causes sinusitis
Sinusitis, or inflammation of the sinuses (the air filled spaces in the skull), can develop when there’s an excess of mucus or swelling in the nasal cavity – for example, due to the common cold or an allergy (like hayfever).1

White angelica: traditionally taken to ease symptoms of sinusitis in Chinese medicine
White angelica is an important herb in TCM. White angelica is traditionally used in the Cang Er Zi San formula, traditionally taken for the relief of sinusitis symptoms such as sinus pain and congestion, and to clear the nasal passages.

Xanthium: relieves hayfever in traditional Chinese medicine
Xanthium, another herb found in the Cang Er Zi San formula is traditionally taken in Chinese medicine to relieve hayfever symptoms. Xanthium is also traditionally used to relieve sneezing and an itchy nose caused by wind-coldness in Chinese medicine.

Oriental Botanicals SinuClear also includes other ingredients from the well-known Cang Er Zi San formula - herbs magnolia flower and Asian wild mint. Plus the herb houttuynia.
