Its effects include clearing heat and detoxifying, soothing the throat, and relieving sore throat. It is a Western medicine effective against inflammation caused by anaerobic bacteria and possesses anti-inflammatory properties. However, it may cause some gastrointestinal side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, dizziness, headache, or allergic reactions. It is recommended to take this medication after meals to minimize gastrointestinal discomfort, and alcohol consumption should be avoided.
