What are the reasons for diarrhea after taking Chinese medicine?

Diarrhea after taking Chinese medicine is a common disease among people. The occurrence of the disease will bring harm to our lives, but the occurrence of the disease always has certain reasons, so in our lives we must not only do a good job of prevention, but also understand the causes of the disease. So, what are the reasons for diarrhea after taking Chinese medicine?

1. For the same medicine, you don’t have diarrhea when you take Chinese patent medicine but do when you take the herbal medicine slices you make yourself. The reason is that Chinese patent medicine will lose some ingredients during the extraction process and it no longer has all the functions of the original herbal medicine slices. On the other hand, the actual dosage of the patent medicine is obviously smaller than that of the herbal medicine slices.

2. In your prescription, there are several herbs that have laxative effects under certain conditions. These herbs include: raw rehmannia, red peony root, peach kernel, immature bitter orange, three-edged sword, curcuma, wine-soaked rhubarb, earthworm. The two herbs "Da Huo Xue" and "Da Jiang Jun" are not general generic names, so it is unclear what they are.

3. If the quality of the medicine is poor, it may cause diarrhea.

4. The ingredients in the extracts from medicinal pieces are relatively complex. Some people who do not take Chinese medicine regularly may suffer from diarrhea if they take it occasionally because their intestines cannot adapt to it.

5. If the medicine is not suitable for your condition, it will also cause diarrhea.

6. There are many blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medicines in your prescription, but only two blood-nourishing ones. I wonder if your blood stasis is really that serious?

7. In the case of spleen and stomach deficiency, it is easy to have diarrhea, especially when taking cold or greasy medicines, such as gypsum, earthworm, and raw rehmannia in the prescription.

8. It is recommended that you buy the same medicine from another pharmacy to try to determine whether there is a quality problem with the medicine itself.

9. You can temporarily reduce the dosage to allow the stomach and intestines to slowly adapt.

10. You can turn the decoction into pills, and use strong medicines with slow effects. That is, you can grind the medicine into fine powder, mix it with refined honey and make it into pills. Taking pills will cause slow absorption, and the irritation to the stomach and intestines will be much smaller, which may alleviate the symptoms of diarrhea.

11. It is recommended that you seek advice from several doctors and choose a Chinese medicine doctor that is suitable for you. I think your prescription is very effective in promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, which can seriously damage the body's vital energy.

The above is a brief introduction to the reasons for diarrhea after taking Chinese medicine. I think everyone should be clear about it. What we need to remind you here is that diarrhea after taking Chinese medicine can cause great harm. In order to prevent the disease from continuing to harm the patient's health, patients must pay attention to it.
