At which stage should Lianhua Qingwen capsules be taken?
Generally, Lianhua Qingwen Capsules are suitable for use at the early stage of a cold or flu when related symptoms appear. If symptoms become severe or the illness progresses to a later stage, dosage adjustments should be made according to medical advice. If in doubt, it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional in advance. Specific analysis is as follows:

During the initial phase of a cold or flu, when the body first develops symptoms such as fever, sore throat, cough, nasal congestion, and runny nose, taking Lianhua Qingwen Capsules promptly can help clear heat and detoxify, promote lung function, and relieve internal heat. This may inhibit disease progression, alleviate discomfort, and support faster recovery.
If symptoms are severe—such as persistent high fever or difficulty breathing—or if there is no improvement after three days, using Lianhua Qingwen Capsules alone may not be effective. Additional medications or treatments may be needed to avoid delaying proper care.
Lianhua Qingwen Capsules should be taken according to the instructions on the label or as directed by a physician. Maintain a light diet during treatment and drink plenty of warm water. If discomfort persists or symptoms worsen, discontinue use immediately and seek medical attention.
