Usage/Dosage
The usual adult dose is 7.5 g/day orally in 2 or 3 divided doses before or between meals. The dosage may be adjusted according to the patient's age and body weight, and symptoms.
Cautions
(1) When TJ-61 is used, the patient’s “SHO” (constitution/symptoms) should be taken into account. The patient’s progress should be carefully monitored, and if no improvement in symptoms/findings is observed, continuous treatment should be avoided.
(2) Since TJ-61 contains Glycyrrhiza, careful attention should be paid to the serum potassium level, blood pressure, etc., and if any abnormality is observed, administration should be discontinued.
(3) When TJ-61 is coadministered with other Kampo-preparations (Japanese traditional herbal medicines) etc., attention should be paid to the duplication of the contained crude drugs. Special caution should be exercised when this product is coadministered with preparations containing Rhubarb.
(4) Since there is an individual difference in the cathartic action of Rhubarb, caution should be exercised concerning the dosage and administration.
SHO: The term “SHO” refers to a particular pathological status of a patient evaluated by the Kampo diagnosis, and is patterned according to the patient’s constitution, symptoms, etc. Kampo-preparations (Japanese traditional herbal medicines) should be used after confirmation that it is suitable for the identified “SHO” of the patient.
