【Usage and Taboo of Suigu Zi】
Suigu Zi is a single Chinese herb, so its main method of administration is internal administration. Each time, only about 10-15 grams is needed to be decocted and taken as a soup. It is best to take it once in the morning and evening.
However, during the administration, it is important not to take it together with drugs with similar effects. It is also necessary to avoid eating spicy and highly irritating foods, as they will hinder the effectiveness of the herb.
Suigu Zi has the effect of abortion and labor induction, so it is contraindicated for pregnant women.
Suigu Zi is cold in nature and is not suitable for pregnant women with weak constitution. It should be used with caution by those without internal fire and damp-heat, and is contraindicated for those with weak constitution and cold.
Although Suigu Zi in TV dramas has the function of abortion, it is important not to blindly imitate. It is still necessary to seek medical treatment through scientific means.
