What is the meaning of a tonic?

The term "tonics" refers to the fine-tuning of a drug's formulation and proportions to achieve a better balance of efficacy and side-effects, thereby alleviating the patient's discomfort. Tonics are mainly used for individualized treatment and special efficacy needs. For example, in the case of common antibiotics, physicians will adjust the original formulation to improve efficacy and mitigate side effects based on the patient's varying age, weight, liver and kidney function, and other factors.

Dispensers play a very important role in the medication process. Through the use of pharmaceuticals, physicians can individualize treatment, tailoring medications to the patient's symptoms and special needs to improve efficacy and reduce side effects. At the same time, the dispenser can also help physicians address drug shortages and discontinuations, ensuring that patients receive timely and accurate treatment.

Dispensing requires special techniques and equipment, and hospitals or pharmacies must be qualified and authorized to provide compliant dispensing services. At the same time, in order to ensure therapeutic efficacy and patient safety, it is necessary to follow the relevant national and industry standards to avoid the use of unqualified or expired raw materials, and to avoid the contamination or misuse of medicines due to improper operation. Therefore, for patients who need to use drug preparations, it is important to ensure that they choose a formal medical institution or pharmacy, and communicate fully with their physicians or pharmacists to understand the preparation process, efficacy, dosage, and other information about the drug, so that they can better control the risk of treatment.
