Yianning Pill is usually taken twice a day, morning and evening, before breakfast or 30-60min before bedtime, and is usually effective within a week. A course of treatment, the time varies from 15 days to 3 months. It is a medicine with three toxins, this time the toxicity refers to the bias of the action of the Chinese medicine, such as cold, hot, warm, cool, from the perspective of modern pharmacology, is the pharmacological action and physiological activity. Therefore, it cannot be considered that tonic herbs are non-toxic herbs, and certainly not simply equivalent to nutrients. For normal people or people with symptoms that do not match, the short-term application of tonic herbs may not be a big problem, but long-term use may produce many toxic side effects. The selection of proprietary Chinese medicine should be based on the theory of Chinese medicine, the evidence of the disease, and the use of medicine. If patients know less about Chinese medicine, they should choose OTC Chinese medicines according to the prescriptions of Chinese medicine practitioners, so as not to lead to blind use of medicines without identification.
