Precautions: those with yang deficiency, external cold and spleen and stomach weakness are prohibited. 1. Gastrointestinal reactions such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort and mild diarrhea occasionally occur after large dose of decoction. After taking a large dose of decoction (30g/kg) for 3 days, the hepatocytes and renal tubular epithelial cells of the experimental rabbits were slightly turbid and swollen, and the renal tubules narrowed, but other changes were not obvious. The subacute toxicity test of mice and rabbits showed that there were a few tubular and turbid renal tubular epithelial cells in urine. 2. allergic reactions after taking dandelion decoction and dandelion wine granules, individuals will have allergic reactions such as urticaria and itching. After intravenous drip of dandelion injection, I occasionally have chills, pallor, cyanosis or mental symptoms. 3.

Most of the infections seen in clinic are heat syndrome, and dandelion generally has no adverse reactions. However, a few infections belong to yin-cold syndrome, with no fever, long course of disease and weak constitution. The author generally sees that some people use large doses of dandelion to treat Yin-cold syndrome, and as a result, patients have symptoms such as anorexia, burnout, fatigue, sweating and pallor. The infected lesions showed no signs of improvement. If dandelion is simply regarded as antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, abuse will have adverse reactions.
