Can people with high blood sugar take Chinese herbal medicine such as Gui Fu Di Huang Wan?

For patients with high blood sugar accompanied by kidney yang deficiency symptoms (such as soreness and weakness in the lower back and knees, cold intolerance, and cold limbs), appropriate use of Guifu Dihuang Pills may help alleviate these symptoms. Guifu Dihuang Pill is a traditional Chinese herbal formula that has various functions, including warming and nourishing kidney yang, promoting blood circulation to remove blood stasis, and regulating menstruation to relieve pain. It should be noted that Guifu Dihuang Pill is not specifically formulated for treating high blood sugar, and it may contain certain amounts of sugar or starch. Therefore, its usage should strictly control the dosage and be conducted under the guidance of a physician. Particularly for patients with poor blood sugar control or other complications, extra caution is required. Additionally, because individual body constitutions and medical conditions vary, it is advisable to consult with a qualified physician or traditional Chinese medicine practitioner before taking Guifu Dihuang Pills, and to develop an appropriate treatment plan based on individual circumstances.
