How to make Chinese medicine pills by yourself requires a detailed process.
Pulverizing the traditional Chinese medicine into fine powder, and sieving with 80 mesh sieve. 2. Honey refining: weigh a certain amount of honey, put it in an evaporating dish and heat it until it boils (if there are impurities, it can be filtered), and continue to refine it to the degree of honey refining, so as to remove floating foam and luster. 3. Drug combination: Mix refined honey with medicinal powder in proportion (the ratio of medicinal powder to refined honey is generally 1: 1 or 1: 5, and some are less than 1: 1, depending on the nature and season of the drug. Generally, Chinese herbal medicines containing sugar and oil use less honey. Drugs with more cellulose and loose texture use more honey. Use less honey in summer and more honey in winter. Evenly knead into dough-like particles (mechanically mixed in a blender or manually mixed in other containers). When dispensing, honey is usually added while it is hot (if it contains gum, resin or volatile components, it needs to be mixed after the refined honey is slightly cooled), and it is fully mixed to make it moist inside and outside, with the same color and moderate hardness, and can be rubbed at will. 4. Make strips and pills. Put the dough-like soft materials together for a certain period of time, so that the medicinal materials and honey components are mixed and wet, and after a certain viscosity is generated, the strips can be rubbed, and the thickness of the strips should be consistent and the appearance should be smooth. That is, a certain amount of smooth spherical pellets can be made by hand or pill-making plate, and mass production can be carried out by machinery. When making pills, the medicine blocks are first weighed and accurately measured, that is, the number of pills to be made each time and the total amount of each pill are calculated, and the medicine blocks are weighed according to the calculated amount, and then rolled into the expected number of pills. The function words of rolling pills can be determined according to the size of the pills. After the pill is rolled, it is divided into small pieces and then rolled into a ball. In order to avoid sticking hands and instruments, an appropriate amount of lubricant can be used during operation. The lubricant can be made by heating and melting 500g glycerin or sesame oil (peanut oil) and 95g beeswax. You can add a little more beeswax in summer. 5. Packaging and storage: honey pills can be wrapped in wax paper, cellophane, plastic bags and wax shells, with product name, batch number and specifications indicated, and stored in a cool and dry place.
