    SI MIAO WAN Safety & Side Effects

    Overuse can result in constipation.  

    Modify for Kidney Deficiency or Lung Heat

    Though Si Miao Wan is considered mild and safe, pregnant or nursing women should consult their health care provider before taking any supplement.

    Traditional Chinese Medicine is powerful and reliable, but it can be complex. As TCM is not based on symptoms alone, self-diagnosis and self-treatment aren't recommended. Best to start a low cost online-herbal-consultation.

    SI MIAO WAN Dosage and Administration

    Tablets: 4-6 tablets taken 2-3 times a day, or as prescribed.

    Granules: The dose is 4-12 grams per day.  Take 2- 4 grams, 2-3 times a day or 6 grams twice a day.  Dissolve the powder in any amount of liquid, and drink. Take it first thing in the morning and later at night before bedtime.  It often works best when taken on an empty stomach. Or, if you don’t like the taste, you can put the powder into gel-caps.

    Whole Herbs: Using a container made of ceramic, glass, or stainless steel (no aluminum, iron or copper) boil 1 packet of herbs in 1-2-quarts of water for until 2 cups of medicine remain. Drink 1 cup in the AM. And 1 cup in the PM. If desired, repeat the following day, using the saved herbs from the refrigerator.

    Drinking Boiled Decoctions

    The potent aromas and flavors of Chinese herbs are legendary. Boiling the herbs and drinking the tea will provide the fullest experience of these medicines.  However the odors and taste can be challenging for many people.  To minimize this challenge, it is suggested that you ventilate the kitchen when boiling the herbs, and that you hold your nose, (or don't breathe through your nose) while drinking the medicine.  Chewing something sweet immediately after drinking the herbs will prevent any aftertaste.
