What is it:
Dissolve Kidney Stones Herbal Tincture is a modern formula based on TCM principles and traditions that is designed to address "stone dysuria" (shi lin syndrome in TCM language) and dissolve kidney stones and stones in the urinary tract.
One of the herbs in this formula that specifically breaks down stones is chanca piedra, also known as the "stone breaker" herb. The herb is alkaline in nature, so it may help prevent acidic kidney stones and is often used as an over-the-counter alternative to the prescription potassium citrate (which is an alkalizing agent that is commonly used in Western medicine to prevent acidic kidney stones).
Three other herbs in this formula have been traditionally used for centuries in TCM to dissolve stones and treat shi lin syndrome, and the remaining herbs in this formula help promote urination and relieve pain.
Important notes:
1. This is intended to be a support formula only and not a replacement for professional diagnosis and guidance. People with kidney infection or acute pain from the kidney stones should seek medical help immediately; along the same lines, if pain from a UTI starts radiating to the back, this could signal a kidney infection and medical treatment is needed.
2. Do not use this formula if pregnant or nursing.
What is it good for:
- Kidney stones
- stones in the urinary tract
- stanguria (covers a host of urinary dysfunctions, aka shi lin syndrome in the language of Chinese Medicine).
Traditional Chinese medicine benefits:

What else you might like to know:
It is important to understand that Chinese herbs work by restoring balance to the body. This means that you usually have to take an herb or a formula for a longer period of time than you would with pharmaceuticals in order to get results-- usually at least a month, and often times longer than that... it all depends on the individual and the nature of the ailment being addressed.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Dissolve Kidney Stones herbal tincture?
Dissolve Kidney Stones is the name of a root + spring tincture based on Chinese medicine principles for a pattern known as shi lin, or stone dysuria. It blends twelve herbs, including classic Chinese herbs for the urinary system and chanca piedra (Phyllanthus amarus). It is intended as a support formula only, not a replacement for professional diagnosis and care. Each 1 oz bottle is roughly a 10 day supply.
What is shi lin in Chinese medicine?
Shi lin, often translated as stone dysuria, is a traditional Chinese medicine pattern involving difficult, uncomfortable urination, sometimes with gritty sediment. It is one of the classic lin syndromes, a group of urinary patterns. Practitioners usually link it to damp heat settling in the lower body over time, and formulas for shi lin focus on draining dampness and promoting urination.
What is the Dissolve Kidney Stones formula traditionally used for?
In Chinese medicine the herbs in this formula are traditionally used to drain damp, promote healthy urination and ease discomfort in the urinary tract. Several of them, such as lysimachia (Jin Qian Cao) and lygodium spores (Hai Jin Sha), are herbs practitioners have relied on for centuries in formulas for shi lin patterns. Others, like corydalis (Yan Hu Suo), are traditionally used to move qi and blood to ease discomfort.
What herbs are in this kidney tincture?
The formula contains lysimachia (Jin Qian Cao), lygodium spores (Hai Jin Sha), chicken gizzard lining (Ji Nei Jin), alisma (Ze Xie), polyporus (Zhu Ling), poria (Fu Ling), Chinese clematis root (Wei Ling Xian), bitter orange (Zhi Ke), toosendan fruit (Chuan Lian Zi), corydalis (Yan Hu Suo), chanca piedra (Phyllanthus amarus) and cat's whiskers herb (Hua Shi Cao).
How do I take the Dissolve Kidney Stones tincture?
Shake the bottle well before each use. For a maintenance serving, dissolve 1 to 2 droppers, about half a teaspoon, in warm water or juice two to three times daily. For an augmented serving, take 1 full teaspoon two to three times a day in warm water or juice. Taking it at about the same times each day makes it easier to stay consistent over a longer course.
Is the Dissolve Kidney Stones tincture safe in pregnancy?
No. Do not use this formula if you are pregnant or nursing. It is also not a substitute for medical care. If you have sudden or severe pain, fever, or pain from a urinary tract infection that spreads to your back, seek medical help right away, as these can signal a kidney infection. If you take prescription medicines, check with your doctor before using any herbal formula.
How long do people usually take this formula?
Chinese herbs work by gradually restoring balance, so they are usually taken for longer than a pharmaceutical. Most people use a formula like this for at least a month, and often longer, depending on the person. Each 1 oz bottle is roughly a 10 day supply. A licensed Chinese medicine practitioner can help you decide how long a course makes sense for you.
How can I reduce the alcohol or improve the taste of the tincture?
Mix your serving into warm water or juice rather than taking it straight. To evaporate some of the alcohol, place your serving in hot water and let it sit for a few minutes before drinking. Juice is the easiest way to soften the taste, which leans bitter and earthy because of herbs like corydalis and toosendan fruit. Shake the bottle well each time before measuring.
