Question: can you take 'western' medication and chinese hearbal stuff at the same time?
Both types were taken to combat my cold and sore throat but now they are in combat mode, against each other!! i wanna get better soon cos i don't want to be sent home from work. i think it's the sudden changes in weather that creating havoc in my immune system.

i hear it isnt encouraged. as the reaction between the chemicals and herbs may not be good... hence a supposed 4 or 6 hour window period for alternate consumption...
ReplyDeletestick to one form i guess ?
take care babe.
Aiyoh what kind of medicines are you taking? I'm always slightly sceptical about TCM because the quality control tends to be a bit iffy, unless it comes from a reputable source! But nooo I wouldn't overdo it if I were you... paracetamol, lots of water and sleep should be enough. No more prancing around with bunnies for you young lady. *patpat*
ReplyDeleteHey, i think better don't mix both together. NOt recommended by my doc when i tried asking her last time. You should noe the doc too, Dr Angline Lim. You take care of yourself, i just recovered from flu only. Luckily, i had her medicine just sent to me a few days ago. if not i thinnk now im still have blked nose.. Take care yah? And wear lots of warm clothing... Haoz
ReplyDeleteThink maybe you burnt out. Pace yourself!
ReplyDeleteDon't take both meds together. Either one, but not both... Z
oh shite. yah i think you should lay off TCM... pls hor take care of yourself!
ReplyDeletethanks.. i will.
ReplyDeleteKorzen for my sore throat (not working...) and herbal tea nonsense (cant read the chinese..) think im stopping the tea though, it tastes nasty.
