For the Chinese patent medicines recommended in the medical observation period, will ordinary people take preventive effects after taking them?

At the meeting, Wang Rongbing, chief physician of the Department of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine at Beijing Ditan Hospital, stated that he did not advocate the use of Chinese patent medicine for the prevention of healthy people and those without symptoms.

The medical observation period is mainly asymptomatic, but our medical observation period recommends the treatment of symptomatic people, some people feel weak and weak, and even some people have diarrhea, abdominal distension and other symptoms, they recommended some Chinese patent medicines, Huoxiangzhengqi, Huo Xiangzhengqisan and Huoxiangzhengqi pills and so on.

She said that some people feel a little uncomfortable and even feel a little fever. Some Chinese patent medicines with heat-clearing effect are also recommended like this. The use of these medicines is not for prevention, so it is not recommended for healthy people and people without symptoms. It is meaningless to use Chinese patent medicine to prevent. The prevention is still in accordance with national regulations, personal protection, not to meet together, wear masks, do hand hygiene, protect the family members they protect, and protect the comrades working around.
