Qinax Maiyin Ointment

QINAX Maiyin Ointment combines Periplaneta Americana (American cockroach) and Notoginseng(Sanqi). It is a modern preparation in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which was developed in particular to promote wound healing, skin regeneration and to treat inflammation. This unusual combination utilizes the unique properties of both main ingredients to provide an effective solution for various skin and soft tissue problems.

Main components and their functions

• Periplaneta Americana (American cockroach, 土鳖虫)
  • Promotion of wound healing: Extracts from Periplaneta Americana are valued in TCM for their exceptional ability to regenerate tissue. They contain bioactive substances that can promote cell proliferation, accelerate the healing of skin and mucous membranes and support wound healing.
  • Anti-inflammatory: These substances can have an anti-inflammatory effect and help to reduce swelling and relieve inflammation.

• Notoginseng(Sanqi, panax notoginseng, 三七)
  • Stopping bleeding and promoting blood circulation: Notoginseng is known in TCM for its ability to stop bleeding and improve blood circulation at the same time. It can help to dissolve blood stasis and speed up the healing process.
  • Pain relief: The anti-inflammatory properties of notoginseng can also help to relieve pain, especially in cases of injury or inflammation.

Possible mode of action in TCM

• Regeneration and healing: The combination of Periplaneta Americana and Notoginseng can promote the rapid regeneration of damaged tissue, promote wound healing and reduce the formation of scars. This ointment can be particularly effective in the treatment of chronic wounds, burns, decubitus ulcers (pressure sores) and surgical scars.
• Helps with irritated, dry and sensitive skin: The ointment can help to make irritated, dry and sensitive skin supple, soft and elastic again. It can moisturize the skin without leaving a greasy feeling.
• Anti-inflammatory and pain relief: The ointment can have an anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effect, making it ideal for the treatment of skin inflammation, bruises and other soft tissue injuries.
• Promoting blood circulation: By promoting blood circulation, notoginseng can help to dissolve stagnant blood accumulations and speed up the healing process. This is particularly useful for injuries that lead to bruising or swelling.

Possible applications in TCM

• Body skin: In TCM, the ointment has proved particularly effective in the treatment of hemorrhoids, corns, calluses, insect bites and acne.
• Chronic wounds and ulcers: In TCM, the ointment is often used to treat wounds that are difficult to heal, such as diabetic foot ulcers or pressure sores. It can promote healing and help prevent infections.
• Burns: For the treatment of burns, the ointment can be used to accelerate healing, relieve pain and minimize scarring.
• Post-operative wounds: After surgical procedures, the ointment can help to promote wound healing and reduce the formation of scar tissue.
• Inflammations and bruises: For bruises, inflammations or sprains, the ointment can help to relieve pain and swelling and support healing.
• Facial skin: The ointment can prevent age spots, eye wrinkles and bags under the eyes in the facial area, reduce all types of spots and have a regenerative effect after sunbathing.
• Skin of the hands: The ointment can prevent age spots and help to keep the skin supple if the hands are dry.
• Itching: The ointment can relieve itching caused by dryness and hypersensitivity of the skin and promote healing. 

Instructions for use

• Application: The ointment is applied directly to the affected area. It is important to cleanse the skin thoroughly before application to ensure optimum effectiveness.
• Frequency: The ointment can be applied 1 - 2 times a day, depending on the severity of the wound or skin problem. In some cases it may be advisable to apply more frequently, especially for chronic wounds.
• Duration of application: The ointment can be used over a longer period of time until the wound is completely healed.
• Precautions: As with all topical applications, the ointment should first be tested on a small area of skin to ensure that no allergic reactions occur. If there are signs of rash, itching or swelling, use should be discontinued immediately. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult a doctor or TCM practitioner before using this ointment, as the active ingredients require special care. The ointment should not be used on deep, open or infected wounds unless specifically recommended by a doctor or TCM practitioner.
