Hi my daughter has been taking a herbal mix to help with her kidney yang deficiency prescribed by her TCM practitioner its to treat the western medical diagnosis of fibromyalgia I’m just wondering how long will she need to take the tonic she’s been on them about 6 weeks so far and we are seeing improvements has anyone else had experience with this At all?

Not knowing your daughters diagnosis, nor the actual herbs in the formula or the dosage the only person that can answer that question with any confidence is the practitioner that prescribed the formula.

Generally kidney tonics can be taken for months to years in some cases. As long as there is improvement there should be no concern.
