It is better to drink Chinese medicine about 30 minutes after meals. Many Chinese medicines are stimulating, and if taken in an empty stomach state, they will cause irritation to the gastric mucosa and even induce the onset of stomach diseases, and such medicines should be taken after meals as much as possible. If you take Chinese medicine too early after a meal, the drug will be mixed with food, which is not conducive to the absorption of drug components and therefore will affect the therapeutic effect of the drug. The food in the stomach has basically been digested about 30 minutes after a meal, so taking Chinese medicine at this time will not affect the digestion and decomposition of food by stomach acid and will cause relatively little stimulation to the gastric mucosa, while the gastrointestinal system can more easily absorb the active ingredients of the medicine. During the period of taking Chinese medicine, you also need to pay attention to your diet and try to avoid eating foods that are too oily, fishy and spicy, which can affect the effect of the medicine.
