Vitality and Chongmyeong Gongjindan: what is the difference?

How the clinic considers physical fatigue and difficulty concentrating when discussing an individualized prescription.

Choosing Gongjindan starts with your current health and pattern of fatigue, rather than the product name. At Kyunghee Jung Clinic, prescriptions follow a consultation and assessment.

Vitality Gongjindan: considering accumulated physical fatigue

This preparation combines Gongjindan with Yukmijihwang-tang. At our clinic, it is considered for people with accumulated fatigue and busy activity schedules, after assessing their constitution and accompanying symptoms.

Chongmyeong Gongjindan: when fatigue and concentration difficulties occur together

This preparation combines Gongjindan with Chongmyeong-tang. We consider fatigue and overall wellbeing in people who study for long periods or have mentally demanding work. It is not a promise of improved intelligence or academic results.

Your current health matters more than your occupation

Being a student or an office worker does not determine the prescription. We first assess the pattern of fatigue and overall health to discuss whether a preparation is appropriate.
