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.
