Warning “One little red pill” comes in each bottle is for hemorrhaging. I would not give to a bird it is for humans. I did not want to break the seals to take it out, so you can just throw it out or hold on to it in case of emergencies.
Westerners first learned of the Chinese herbal mixture “Yunnan Baiyao,” meaning “the white medicine of Yunnan,” during the Vietnam War. Members of the U.S. military discovered that prisoners from North Vietnam often carried with them a tiny bottle of this product to take in the event that they were injured and bleeding, either internally or externally.
The little red pill lies at one end. Folklore has it that the North Vietnamese soldiers would take this red “hit pill” when seriously wounded, as in receiving a gunshot wound, and this would check the bleeding.
The Chinese doctor Qu Huangzhang developed Yunnan Baiyao in the Yunnan province of China in the early 1900s. Its main active ingredient consisted of pseudoginseng root, now called Panax notoginseng, notoginseng, “tien chi,” or “san qi.” Notoginseng is a type of ginseng that offers the highest concentration of hemostatic constituents among all seven major ginseng types.
Studies done decades ago showed that Yunnan Baiyao activates platelets and decreases bleeding and clotting times. Yunnan Paiyao markedly shortened bleeding and clotting times after experimental oral and topical administration in rabbits, rats, and humans. No adverse effects have been reported after oral and topical administration, but in general, quality control and manufacturing regulations may be lacking for Chinese herbal products. Yunnan Paiyao is currently not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
What is in Quick Stop:
Ferric Subsulfate, Aluminum Chloride, Diatomite, Bentonite, Copper Sulfate, Ammonium Chloride, Benzocaine.
Ferric Subsulfate,
Can affect you when inhaled.
Contact can irritate skin and eyes.
Inhaling Ferrous Sulfate can irritate the nose, throat, and lungs.
Prolonged eye contact may lead to eye damage.
Repeated high exposures may lead to too much iron build up in the body causing nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, constipation, and black bowel movements.
Ferrous Sulfate may affect the liver.
Aluminum Chloride,
Can affect you when inhaled.
Is Corrosive and contact can severely irritate and burn the skin and eyes with possible eye damage.
Inhaling Aluminum Chloride can irritate the nose and throat.
Inhaling Aluminum Chloride can irritate the lungs. Higher exposures may cause a build-up of fluid in the lungs (pulmonary edema), a medical emergency.
Repeated exposure to Aluminum Chloride may cause scarring of the lungs (fibrosis).
Aluminum Chloride is Reactive and a Dangerous Explosion Hazard.
Diatomite, Bentonite,
Bentonite clay I like this stuff.
Chances are you’ve heard of Bentonite clay and it’s amazing healing properties.
Copper Sulfate,
Potential Health Effects Copper sulfate presents a health risk because the compound breaks down into copper. Our bodies need some copper but too much can be harmful. Exposure to high levels of copper can cause nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Too much exposure to copper for a long time may harm the liver.
Ammonium Chloride,
HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: Potential symptoms of overexposure to fumes are irritation of eyes, skin, and respiratory system; cough, dyspnea, pulmonary sensitization. Large doses of ammonium chloride may cause metabolic acidosis secondary to hyperchloremia, especially in patients with impaired renal function. Other adverse effects of excessive ammonium chloride dosage include rash, headache, hyperventilation, bradycardia, progressive drowsiness, mental confusion, and phases of excitement alternating with coma.
Benzocaine.
Benzocaine should be used with caution as it may cause tenderness, itchiness, and edema to the applied area. Though benzocaine is a relatively low-risk medication, some patients may experience sensitization to the drug. Topical benzocaine usage is not recommended in patients that have deep wounds, lesions, or severe burns.
