Traditional Chinese medicine is mild in nature. Traditional Chinese medicine comes from nature, which has little adverse reaction to human body, and can even "cure diseases and strengthen the body." Traditional Chinese medicine can even be taken as a "tonic" for a long time to achieve health care purposes.

As the saying goes, "three drugs are toxic." Traditional Chinese medicine, like other drugs, has the dual nature of medicine, that is, treating diseases and causing diseases. Chinese medicine is used to adjust the deviation of human function. If it is improperly applied and divorced from people's physique, it will also cause adverse reactions and damage human functions.
In recent years, with the increasingly extensive and international application of traditional Chinese medicine, the adverse reactions of traditional Chinese medicine have become the focus of public attention. The National Center for Adverse Drug Reactions reported many serious adverse reactions caused by the use of traditional Chinese medicine. For example, Aristolochia manshuriensis, Radix Stephaniae Tetrandrae, Radix Aristolochiae, Carefulness, Rosaceae and other Chinese medicines containing aristolochic acid cause aristolochic acid nephropathy; Some traditional Chinese medicines containing minerals, such as cinnabar and realgar, can cause chronic mercury and arsenic poisoning.
In daily life, some people who buy traditional Chinese medicine without authorization lack enough medical knowledge, which is easy to cause adverse reactions due to inaccurate syndrome differentiation, repeated drug use and excessive abuse, and even lead to aggravation of the disease, especially for patients with basic diseases, the elderly, young children and pregnant women. Careless use is more likely to harm their health, so we should be vigilant.
If some patients feel backache, they should take Liuwei Dihuang Pill to make up for it. In fact, Liuwei Dihuang Pill is not suitable for everyone. Liuwei Dihuang Pill is only suitable for patients with yin deficiency and kidney yin deficiency, especially middle-aged people. Taking Liuwei Dihuang Pill for young people or people with damp-heat in liver and spleen and lung heat will not only aggravate damp-heat, but also lead to sores in mouth and tongue, yellow urine and other phenomena, which will aggravate the original condition.
There are strict standards for the application of Chinese medicine, that is, after four diagnoses of "looking, smelling, asking and feeling", Chinese medicine can make a diagnosis through comprehensive analysis, and then use drugs based on syndrome differentiation, and it is not possible to maintain health simply by taking "tonic".
The application of traditional Chinese medicine must be based on symptomatic medication and reasonable prescription, which varies from person to person in order to effectively reduce or avoid the occurrence of adverse reactions. Traditional Chinese medicine should not be taken in large doses for a long time to avoid the cumulative toxicity of drugs. When using traditional Chinese medicine, you must take it under the guidance of a doctor, and don't change the dosage and method at will. Read the instructions carefully, take the medicine according to the recommended usage and dosage, and consult a doctor Yamatonokusushi if necessary. If it is necessary to use traditional Chinese medicine injection, it should be injected alone and not combined with other drugs to avoid compatibility reaction or other adverse reactions.
