From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sān miào wán (Chinese: ; lit. 'three marvel pill') is a traditional Chinese medicine consisting of three components:[1]

The preparation, as well as related herbal combinations such as èr miào wán (二妙丸, "two marvel pill", which contains equal proportions of huáng bǎi and cāng zhú)[2] and sì miào wán (四妙丸, "four marvel pill"),[3] has been used traditionally in treatment of gout. Sān miào wán has been reported to lower serum and liver uric acid concentration in mice with hyperuricemia, but not normal mice, by suppressing xanthine oxidase and downregulating production of mRNA for renal uric acid transporter mURAT1.[4]
