What medicine should I take for white tongue coating and bad breath

White tongue coating and bad breath are generally caused by damp-heat in the spleen. We know that the spleen is responsible for transportation and transformation, and spleen deficiency will lead to the abnormal circulation of qi, blood, and body fluids. If it lasts for a long time, it may be retained on the tongue, resulting in a thick and greasy tongue coating. When such symptoms occur, some medicines that clear heat, promote dampness, and strengthen the spleen can be used for treatment. For example, you can drink raw rehmannia and ophiopogon water, which has a certain conditioning and therapeutic effect.
