Q Should I take Gongjin-dan in the morning or the evening? Does the timing matter?
A Generally, taking it on an empty stomach in the morning or 30 minutes before a meal is favorable for absorption. Those with weak digestion may take it right after a meal. More important than the exact time is taking it consistently at the same time.
Detailed Answer
Gongjin-dan is generally taken in pill (honeyed pill) form on an empty stomach in the morning with warm water. If empty-stomach use is hard on the digestive system, you may take it 30 minutes after a meal. On days with a drinking occasion, skip the dose or take it the next morning. Refrigerated storage is recommended, and it is important to take it within the expiration date.
