What does Chinese medicine smell like when it goes bad?

We all know that when Chinese medicine practitioners treat patients, the most important thing is to observe, listen, ask and feel the body. When prescribing medicine for patients, they usually choose traditional Chinese medicine, because traditional Chinese medicine can not only be used for conditioning, but also for treating diseases. Therefore, for some chronic diseases, taking traditional Chinese medicine is the best choice, and it can achieve the most fundamental conditioning for the patient's body. But sometimes traditional Chinese medicine will go bad. So what does spoiled traditional Chinese medicine taste like?

The most basic characteristic of Chinese medicine deteriorating is sourness and mold; the main reason for deterioration is bacterial invasion. You took out the boiled Chinese medicine from the refrigerator yesterday. Now the weather is cold, so it won't get moldy or spoil today. As for drug precipitation, since the specific gravity of the dissolved substances of many drugs is greater than that of water, it is a normal physical phenomenon, so you don't have to worry.

The Chinese medicine (in sealed packaging) decocted by the hospital on January 1st was kept in the refrigerator for the first two days and not yesterday. When I drank it just now, I found that there was sediment in it. According to the current weather, Chinese medicine will not go bad if left outside, so it is normal to have sediment in it. The most obvious sign of spoiled Chinese medicine is a sour smell and then mold.

Traditional Chinese medicine has sedimentation. If the prescription contains talc, Chuanxiong, etc., there will be a lot of sedimentation, forming a layer! If you put it in the refrigerator for less than a week, it won't go bad! The characteristic of going bad is that it smells sour! Of course, some good medicines also taste a bit sour

The taste of rancidity is quite different from the inherent sour taste of traditional Chinese medicine. Schisandra seeds have a sour taste. See the effect of the medicine after taking it, and you can continue it if it works. The liquid medicine should be kept in the refrigerator

If the product is spoiled, it is recommended to stop taking the medicine actively, considering the possibility of causing diarrhea and discomfort.

Suggestions: Therefore, it is recommended to be cautious. Under normal circumstances, Chinese medicine should be refrigerated, so it is recommended to pay attention to local hygiene, consider actively flushing and boiling, and pay attention to whether the amount of menstrual bleeding is normal.
