Precautions

This medicine contains lactose, so individuals with a genetic condition that prevents the breakdown of lactose should not take it. Newborns or pregnant women, or those who may become pregnant, should not take this medication as it may risk uterine contractions or premature delivery. Nursing mothers should avoid this medication or stop breastfeeding, as the ingredients in this drug may transfer into breast milk and cause diarrhea in infants. Individuals with diarrhea or loose stools, weak stomachs, or symptoms of poor appetite, nausea, or vomiting should consult a healthcare professional before taking this medication. People with very weak physical conditions, those taking other medications, the elderly, and children should also consult with a professional before use. If any symptoms like poor appetite, stomach discomfort, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, or diarrhea occur while taking this medicine, discontinue use immediately and consult with a professional. Moreover, if symptoms do not improve after a few days of use, stop taking it and consult a doctor. It is essential to adhere strictly to the prescribed dosage and frequency, as the constipation-relieving effect of the Dahuang ingredient varies by individual. Stimulant laxatives should not be used continuously for more than a week, as tolerance can develop and constipation may worsen. When taking this medicine along with other herbal or natural medicines, ensure that there is no ingredient overlap, especially avoiding combinations with products containing Dahuang. Store this medicine in a sealed container away from direct sunlight and in a cool place with low humidity, and always seal it properly after use. Keep out of reach of children, and be cautious as transferring it to another container may increase the risk of misuse or degradation of quality. While there is insufficient evidence that Binlangzi, an herbal material, can cause cancer, it should only be used when the therapeutic effects are judged to outweigh the risks.
