Is it beneficial to take Liu Wei Di Huang Wan regularly? The answer depends on the individual patient’s specific condition and cannot be generalized. For individuals who are relatively healthy and do not have indications for Liu Wei Di Huang Wan, long-term use may cause adverse effects, such as loss of appetite, indigestion, abdominal distension, or diarrhea. However, for patients whose symptoms—such as heat sensation in the palms and soles, and soreness or weakness in the lower back and knees—are caused by liver-kidney yin deficiency, long-term use of Liu Wei Di Huang Wan under a physician’s guidance can help control their condition.
