Dr. He Haochen
Long-term use of Zhibai Dihuang Pills generally cannot treat kidney yang deficiency. Zhibai Dihuang Pills are effective for treating kidney yin deficiency, and therefore are not recommended for prolonged use in cases of kidney yang deficiency. Clinically, kidney yang deficiency is usually treated with medications such as Jinkui Shenqi Pills or Yougui Pills. It is advised to follow medical guidance when taking any medication and to avoid self-medication.
