It is not recommended to take Half-summer Laxative Heart Soup after drinking to avoid causing adverse reactions.
Half-summer Laxative Heart Soup is composed of half-summer, scutellaria baicalensis, dry ginger, ginseng, licorice, coptis, jujube, etc. It is able to calm and harmonize cold and heat, and eliminate lumps and dissipate knots (eliminating lumps in the body). It is used in cases of plumpness where cold and heat are intermingled. Symptoms include plumpness under the heart (mainly referring to distension and discomfort in the stomach), but fullness without pain, or vomiting, bowel sounds and discharges.
