Treatment Duration

Q. How long does it take to receive my diet herbal medicine after a remote consultation and prescription?

A.

It typically takes 3 to 5 business days to receive your medication. This period allows me, as the chief physician, to personally analyze your constitution and carefully decoct the herbal formula to ensure the medicine is perfectly tailored to your specific body type.

📝 Detailed Answer

I understand the desire for quick results, but weight loss herbal medicine is not a mass-produced product; it is more like a 'tailored suit' for your health. It is essential to spend time analyzing your internal state, such as the presence of Dam-eum (phlegm-fluid/metabolic waste) or Eohyeol (blood stasis), based on your consultation data. Here is the general timeline: First, we assess your current condition via remote consultation. During this process, I carefully examine whether you have Bi-heo (Spleen deficiency resulting in weak digestive function) or if your energy flow is blocked due to stress. Once the prescription is finalized, the preparation and decocting (tang-jeon) process usually takes 2 to 3 days. Including shipping, you can expect delivery within 3 to 5 business days. Some patients seek immediate medication out of a desperate urge to lose weight quickly. However, taking medicine without considering your basal metabolic rate and constitution can lead to side effects, such as dizziness or extreme lethargy. Having experienced such trial-and-error myself in the past, I deeply empathize with your urgency. Please be patient for a short while. I will meticulously prepare your prescription so you can manage your weight healthily while maintaining your body's internal balance. If you have any questions regarding the dosage or administration after receiving your medicine, please feel free to contact me anytime.
