You don't have to take it during the day, and it works with just twice a day, so it's easy to continue even if you are busy!
Chikunine focuses on "pus" and "bacteria".
That is why we chose "Shin'i Seihai-to".
In developing Chikunine, we carefully selected from over 200 types of herbal medicines the "Shin'i Seihai-to". "Shin'i Seihai-to" is a herbal medicine combining 9 types of crude drugs. It reduces bacteria※ while calming inflammation, regulates excess moisture, and acts on the ciliary function of the nasal mucosa to promote the discharge of pus. In other words, because the factors causing the painful symptoms of chronic sinusitis (sinus infection) are "pus" and "bacteria", we chose "Shin'i Seihai-to", which features pus discharge and inflammation suppression caused by bacteria.
