Q What happens when I go to get a Sipjeondaebo-tang prescription?
A At the first visit, pulse diagnosis and consultation assess your Qi-Blood deficiency/excess status, and the prescription is composed to fit your constitution. It is prescribed as a decoction or pills, with a follow-up visit every 3 months to check progress.
Detailed Answer
At the first visit, we assess your current energy level, presence of anemia, digestive function, sleep pattern, and medications being taken. Based on the pulse diagnosis findings on the cause and degree of Qi-Blood deficiency, additional herbs are added to the base composition of this Qi-Blood tonifying medicine. The form (decoction or pills) and duration of use are decided according to your condition.
