Book dosage is for reference only. In fact, the dosage of Chinese medicine cannot be fixed. Depending on the patient's condition, the doctor's experience and the preparation of the medicine, the dosage is flexible and cannot be fixed. The clinical experience of the doctor is the most crucial. Therefore, Chinese medicine requires the transmission of experience rather than simple book learning.

Hi, the dosage of herbs is determined by many factors.

1. In terms of medicines, herb texture, herb odor, herb toxicity, herb concoction and other dosages are different.

2. In terms of application, compounding, dosage form, purpose of use, etc. are also criteria for determining dosage.

3. Patient-wise, gender, individual differences, condition, disease duration and other factors also affect the dosage.

Therefore, clinical application of Chinese medicine should fully consider the influence of various factors to determine the optimal dosage in order to achieve results.

I hope my answer can help you.
