What are the side-effects of Chinese medicine?
Acupuncture, herbal formulas and other Chinese medicine techniques are natural therapies with minimal or no side effects. Occasionally, an herbal formula is found to disturb the gastrointestinal tract of initial users but this disturbance can be avoided by taking the herbs after a meal. Patients can generally receive Chinese medicine treatments for a lifetime without worrying about side effects. Nor is there any tolerance or addiction to Chinese medicine.
