Q I have a lot of overtime and only have time in the evenings. It's hard to fit in the tonic dosing schedule.
A For a Korean Medicine tonic, taking it consistently matters more than at a fixed exact time. You can split doses between before work in the morning and after coming home in the evening, or adjust to a single evening dose.
Detailed Answer
If it's a liquid decoction, you can take one dose on an empty stomach before work in the morning and another after coming home in the evening. If a morning dose is difficult, the prescription can be adjusted to a single evening dose instead. Pill form is easy to carry and convenient to take during lunch or after work. Please tell us your lifestyle pattern when we prescribe, and we'll choose the form that's most convenient for you.
Our Korean Medicine Clinic's Perspective
Dongjedang Korean Medicine Clinic selects the most convenient form — decoction, pills, or powder — based on each office-worker patient's lifestyle. Higher convenience means more consistent intake, and that's what produces results.
