Direct swallowing of Chinese medicine granules is more irritating to the intestinal tract and is not conducive to the development of the medicinal effect, so they should not be swallowed directly and should be consumed with warm boiled water.
Chinese medicine granules are extracted from Chinese medicines, and such medicinal preparations should be stirred thoroughly with warm boiled water and consumed, which will help to give full play to the efficacy of the medicine. If swallowed directly, some of the granules will adhere to the oral mucosa and fail to exert their medicinal effects. Moreover, the drug is not diluted, which will irritate the esophagus and gastrointestinal tract and cause discomfort.
Chinese medicine granules have the advantages of being easy to carry, take and store, making them suitable for people who often travel or do not have the time to boil them. However, they must be taken with warm boiled water, and it is not recommended to consume spicy, greasy and stimulating food during the period of taking the medicine.
