Pharmacies often display Chinese medicine. You might wonder, “What exactly is Chinese medicine?” If you have thoughts like, “It’s bitter but seems good for the body” or “I’ve heard of Kakkonto, but…,” a Chinese medicine expert will explain the basic principles and knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine in an easy-to-understand way.
This time, the theme is “Chiba-Jiokoumaru.” It was explained to us by Asahara Kampo’s pharmacist, Junko Ikari.
Who should recommend Chiba-Jiokoumaru to?
First, let’s explain who Chiba-Jiokoumaru is suitable for.
1. People with flushing or heat symptoms
Chiba-Jiokoumaru is effective for relieving flushing symptoms such as face and upper body flushing, hand and foot flushing, and sweating associated with menopausal flushing symptoms.
One of the uncomfortable symptoms common in menopause is hot flashes. Chiba-Jiokoumaru contains herbs that cool down flushing symptoms, making it recommended for those suffering from hot flashes.
2. People with dry throat
As you age, your body loses moisture, and excessive heat accumulates in your body, causing your mouth and throat to become dry, leaving you constantly craving water. Chiba-Jiokoumaru has the function of supplying water and nutrients to the body, making it suitable for those who tend to have dry mouth and throat.
3. People with difficulty in urination
Reishi and Red Star Anise are Chinese herbal medicines that enhance kidney function. According to traditional Chinese medicine, the kidneys are not just kidneys, but are also related to human growth and development, as well as the genitourinary and reproductive organs, and are involved in the metabolism of water and fluids and respiration. Chiba-Jiokoumaru’s effects make it recommended for those with urinary problems such as difficulty urinating and frequent urination.

Next, we will explain the effects, actions, and intake methods of Red Star Anise.
1. Effects and Benefits
It is effective for the following symptoms of those with moderate physical strength, those who get tired easily, those with weak stomachs, and those with dry mouths.
– Flushing of the face and limbs
– Difficulty in urination

It cools down excessive heat, replenishes the body with water and nutrients, enhances water metabolism, and improves diseases of the genitourinary and reproductive systems caused by aging.
2. Basic Drinking Method
Chiba-Jiokoumaru should be taken before meals (about 30 minutes before meals) or between meals (on an empty stomach, about 2 hours after meals) with water or hot water.
When taking Chinese herbal medicine, be sure to adhere to the prescribed dosage. If you forget to take it, avoid taking it more than twice at once. If you realize you forgot, take it immediately. If taking it three times a day, wait at least 4 hours before the next dose. If taking it twice a day, wait at least 6 hours.
Are there any side effects to Chiba-Jiokoumaru? How to safely take it
Although Chinese herbal medicine has a lower risk of side effects compared to Western medicine, it is not entirely free of side effects.
Chiba-Jiokoumaru may potentially cause gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea, heartburn, stomach upset, abdominal pain, and loss of appetite. Those with poor gastrointestinal health should be cautious. If you feel unwell, stop taking it immediately and consult a doctor or pharmacist.
Chinese herbal medicine is very important to be compatible with your body. Even with the same symptoms, the appropriate prescription varies from person to person. When taking Chinese herbal medicine, consult experts such as doctors or pharmacists to choose the Chinese herbal medicine that suits you.
