Question
My child loves to sweat and their immunity is low. I bought Yu Ping Feng Granules and would like to inquire about the appropriate dosage and frequency for a 7-year-old child. The child weighs 66 pounds, and the Yu Ping Feng Granules I bought come in 5-gram packets.
Answer
Based on your description, the child has low immunity and is prone to illness, making Yu Ping Feng Granules a suitable choice. Yu Ping Feng Granules have the traditional Chinese medicine effects of tonifying Qi, consolidating the exterior, and stopping sweating, which are beneficial for those with deficiency and susceptibility to wind pathogens. The usual dosage for adults is 5 grams per time, three times a day. Considering the child’s age and weight, it is recommended to adjust the dosage appropriately based on the child’s condition or consult a physician for professional guidance.
