Introduction
The recommended duration of treatment with Qiju Dihuang Wan is generally 1–3 months, with the specific duration determined based on individual clinical conditions and the physician’s recommendation. Patients with milder symptoms and shorter disease duration—for example, those experiencing mild liver-kidney yin deficiency due to recent excessive eye strain or fatigue—may observe noticeable improvement, such as reduced ocular dryness, after approximately one month of treatment.
Qiju Dihuang Wan is generally recommended to be taken for 1–3 months; the exact duration should be determined based on individual clinical conditions and the physician’s advice. The rationale is as follows:
Qiju Dihuang Wan is a commonly used traditional Chinese patent medicine primarily indicated for nourishing the kidneys and liver. Patients with milder conditions and shorter disease duration—for example, those experiencing mild liver-kidney yin deficiency symptoms (e.g., dry eyes, dizziness) due to recent excessive eye strain or fatigue—may observe noticeable improvement after approximately one month of treatment. At this point, further evaluation by a physician can determine whether to continue therapy or adjust the treatment plan.
In contrast, patients with more severe or chronic conditions—such as long-standing chronic liver or kidney disorders—or those with inherently weak constitutions and pronounced liver-kidney yin deficiency may require 2–3 months of continuous treatment to achieve substantial restoration of yin-yang balance. During therapy, the physician will periodically reassess the patient—including symptom improvement and changes in relevant physiological parameters—to comprehensively evaluate therapeutic efficacy and determine the optimal treatment duration.
Regardless of disease severity, Qiju Dihuang Wan should always be used under professional medical supervision, with dosage duration adjusted appropriately according to individual circumstances. Patients should closely monitor their bodily responses during treatment and strictly adhere to their physician’s instructions to ensure safe and effective use.
