The time required for the effectiveness of Yin Zhi Huang in treating jaundice varies depending on the severity of the condition and the patient's physical constitution. Generally, for patients with mild symptoms and a stronger constitution, effects may be observed within about 5 days after starting treatment. For patients with more severe jaundice and a weaker constitution, it may take approximately 7 days before symptom relief becomes noticeable. Yin Zhi Huang, a traditional Chinese medicine, has functions of clearing heat, detoxifying, promoting diuresis, and reducing jaundice. It can facilitate bowel movements and help the body eliminate excess bilirubin, thus achieving the therapeutic goal. However, please note that the specific dosage and duration of treatment must strictly follow medical advice to ensure both treatment efficacy and patient safety.
