[Comments] 1. Both Peucedanum chinense and Radix Bupleuri can reduce qi and resolve phlegm, but Peucedanum chinense can also dissipate wind-heat, while Radix Bupleuri is specialized in reducing qi.
2. Both Peucedanum chinense and Radix Bupleuri have dispersing power, and the two herbs can be used together to disperse wind and relieve heat, so the predecessors called the two hu as wind medicine. However, Peucedanum chinense treats the lung meridian and mainly descends, while Radix Bupleuri treats the liver and gallbladder and mainly ascends, which is the difference between the two herbs.
