Therefore, honeysuckle can clear lung heat. However, it can clear the solid fire of the lungs, such as coughing up yellow sputum or coughing up blood, dry nose and epistaxis.

So, in terms of fighting colds, honeysuckle does work.
In fact, honeysuckle can be found inside quite a few of the Chinese medicines we are familiar with for treating colds.
For example.Shuanghuanglian Oral Liquid--This is not double Huanglian, but is composed of the three medicines Shuanghuanghua (i.e., honeysuckle), Scutellaria baicalensis, and Lianjiao, and "Shuanghuanglian" is just a shortened version of these three medicines.

There is no scientific basis for honeysuckle to clear lung heat. First of all, what is lung heat? We are not sure, there is no such term in modern medicine (western medicine). We can only clarify the question of what is Lung Hot Water first, and then answer the question of whether taking honeysuckle can clear Lung Heat.
Lung heat is a term used in Chinese medicine, just as uterine cold and stomach cold are terms used in Chinese medicine. But we humans are thermostatic animals, there is no such thing as uterine cold or stomach cold. Similarly, Lung Heat does not exist.
