Can Panax notoginseng tablets be taken for a long time

Panax notoginseng tablet is a Chinese patent medicine whose main component is panax notoginseng. It has the functions of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, reducing swelling and relieving pain. It is often used to treat symptoms such as traumatic bleeding, swelling and pain due to falls. However, long-term use of Panax notoginseng tablets is not recommended.

Long-term use of Panax notoginseng tablets may increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, irritate the gastrointestinal mucosa, and cause nausea, vomiting and other uncomfortable symptoms. Secondly, Panax notoginseng tablets are metabolized by the liver, and long-term use may increase the burden on the liver and cause damage to liver function. In addition, for special groups of people, such as pregnant women and those with abnormal liver and kidney function, Panax notoginseng tablets should be used with caution or prohibited to avoid adverse effects on the body.

In addition to Panax notoginseng tablets, other drugs such as Salvia miltiorrhiza and safflower also have the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, but they are also not recommended for long-term use. Long-term use of these drugs may cause coagulation disorders and increase the risk of bleeding.
