Generally, if a 70-year-old elderly person has corresponding indications, they may take Wuji Baifeng Pills under the guidance of a physician.

Wuji Baifeng Pills are a type of traditional Chinese patent medicine, primarily containing ingredients such as black-bone chicken, ginseng, white peony root, and other traditional Chinese herbs. They are used to replenish qi and nourish blood, regulate menstruation, and stop abnormal vaginal discharge. These pills are suitable for symptoms such as deficiency of both qi and blood, physical weakness, emaciation, soreness and weakness of the waist and knees, and irregular menstruation. From the perspective of the drug's ingredients and effects, if a 70-year-old elderly person experiences the above symptoms and a physician confirms that they meet the indications for Wuji Baifeng Pills, then they may take the medication under medical supervision.

However, due to the relatively weakened physical condition of 70-year-old individuals, they may have chronic illnesses or be taking other medications. Therefore, before taking Wuji Baifeng Pills, it is important to inform the physician about their overall health condition and current medication use to avoid potential drug interactions or adverse reactions. The treatment should be initiated under the guidance of a qualified physician with a low dosage, and the individual's physical response should be closely monitored. If any discomfort occurs, the medication should be discontinued immediately and medical attention sought.

In daily life, 70-year-old individuals should maintain self-health management, including following a balanced diet, engaging in moderate exercise, and maintaining a positive mental state, all of which contribute to maintaining good health in old age.
