Update Date: Source: Network

Gansui can usually be used together with scallion whites, but it should be taken under the guidance of a doctor to avoid affecting health.

Gansui has a bitter taste and cold nature, and is associated with the spleen, lung, kidney, and bladder meridians. It has the effects of eliminating edema and swelling, dispersing nodules, and is clinically used to relieve symptoms such as edema, ascites, and urinary and fecal retention. However, it cannot be used together with licorice, seaweed, pinellia ternata, bletilla striata, and other medications.

Scallion whites have a pungent taste and warm nature, and are associated with the lung and stomach meridians. They have the effects of promoting sweating to relieve exterior syndromes and dispersing cold to invigorate yang, and are clinically used to relieve symptoms such as external wind-cold and internal cold excess. However, they cannot be used together with Liuwei Dihuang Pill, honey, and other medications.

Gansui and scallion whites can usually be used together without contraindications, and their combined use also has the effect of moistening and relaxing the bowels. However, if patients are allergic to these two medications, their use is generally not recommended as it may induce allergic reactions, such as rash, chest tightness, and itching, which are detrimental to health. During medication use, patients should also closely monitor their condition, develop good living habits, maintain a healthy diet, rest adequately, and stay in a good mood.

If other symptoms appear during treatment, further examination and treatment are needed to avoid affecting health.
