If you add too much water to boil Chinese medicine, you can use methods such as pouring out the extra water, prolonging the decoction time, and increasing the number of times you take the medicine, according to the actual situation. 1. Pouring out more water: If you accidentally add too much water at the beginning of boiling Chinese medicine, you can directly pour out the water and adjust it to the right amount of water. 2. Extend the decoction time: If you find too much water in the process of decoction, if the Chinese medicine can be decocted for a long time, you can extend the time of decoction and concentrate the liquid. Long-decocted Chinese medicines such as oyster, dragon bone, talcum, pearl, magnetite, tortoise board, sea clam shell, cistanchia, appendicia, aconite, etc. can be decocted for a long time. 3. Increase the number of times of taking medicine: If the Chinese medicine cannot be decocted for a long time, it is not recommended to prolong the time of decoction, so you can keep too much liquid and increase the number of times of taking medicine. The common Chinese medicines that can not be decocted for a long time include ephedra, windbreak, mint, cinnamon, patchouli, wood, cardamom, sandalwood, sandalwood, hookworm, rhubarb, senna and so on. When boiling Chinese medicine, the standard amount of water added to a soup is usually 3~5cm above the drug, and should be boiled and taken in strict accordance with the doctor’s requirements.
