The traditional Chinese medicine name for bat feces is Yemingsha, which is a type of Chinese herbal medicine. It should be used under the guidance of a doctor to avoid adverse effects on health. Yemingsha comes from the feces of animals such as Vespertilio superans, Macrophylla, Pipistrellus pipistrellus, Plecotus auritus, Hipposideros armiger, Rhinolophus ferrumequinum, and Myotis iron-gray. It generally has the effects of clearing heat, improving eyesight, promoting blood circulation, and eliminating stagnation. After taking it, it can help treat conditions such as nyctalopia, cataract, and corneal opacity. However, this medication is not recommended for blind use. It should be taken according to the severity of the illness and the doctor's instructions, following the prescribed course of treatment to avoid adverse symptoms from drug abuse. If one is allergic to Yemingsha, it is usually not advisable to take it to prevent allergic reactions such as skin itchiness, rash, and swelling after ingestion. During the medication period, a light diet should be maintained, avoiding excessively cold or spicy foods, which may irritate the gastrointestinal tract, affect drug absorption, and delay disease treatment. In daily life, patients are advised to observe their condition closely after taking medication. If the disease does not improve or uncomfortable symptoms appear after taking the medication, they should visit a formal hospital for examination and treatment to avoid delaying the condition.
