Practitioner-Grade Codonopsis Root Liquid Extract

MediHerb Codonopsis 1:2 is a concentrated single-herb liquid extract prepared from the root of Codonopsis pilosula.

Traditionally used in Chinese medicine to support vitality, appetite and digestive function, this 500 mL practitioner format may be prescribed individually or incorporated into a professionally formulated herbal compound.

CODONOPSIS LIQUID FAQSCommon Questions About Codonopsis Liquid Extract
What is MediHerb Codonopsis 1:2 Liquid Extract?

It is a concentrated single-herb liquid extract prepared from the root of Codonopsis pilosula. The 500 mL format is intended primarily for practitioner dispensing, individual prescribing and professional herbal compounding.

What is Codonopsis traditionally used for?

Codonopsis is traditionally used in Chinese medicine to support vitality, appetite and digestive function. It may be selected by practitioners where fatigue and reduced appetite form part of the individual presentation.

Is Codonopsis the same as ginseng?

No. Codonopsis and Asian ginseng are different herbs. Codonopsis is sometimes described in traditional herbal practice as a gentler alternative, but it should not automatically be substituted for ginseng without practitioner guidance.

Is this a finished energy formula?

No. It is a single-herb liquid extract rather than a complete energy or adaptogen formula. A practitioner may prescribe it alone or combine it with other compatible herbal extracts.

What does the 1:2 extract ratio mean?

The 1:2 ratio describes the concentration used when preparing the extract. It means one part of starting herbal material is used to produce two parts of finished liquid extract.

How much Codonopsis Liquid Extract should be taken?

The listed adult dosage is 30–60 mL per week, or as directed by a qualified healthcare practitioner. This is a weekly amount and must not be mistaken for a daily dosage.

Does Codonopsis Liquid Extract contain alcohol?

Yes. It contains 45% ethanol, which is used during extraction and preservation. Speak with your practitioner before use if an alcohol-containing preparation is unsuitable for you.

Can Codonopsis be used for persistent fatigue?

It should not replace medical investigation. Ongoing fatigue, pallor, weakness, reduced appetite, shortness of breath or unexplained weight loss may have several possible causes and should be assessed by a healthcare professional.

Can Codonopsis be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

Professional supervision is recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Follow the current product label and obtain advice from the healthcare practitioner managing your care.

How should Codonopsis Liquid Extract be stored?

Store it below 25°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat. Keep the bottle tightly closed, away from ignition sources and out of reach of children.
