    Thanks for your brief. Our team has the following questions:
    1.Do you want us to combine traditional Chinese medicine and conventional medicines in a device?
    2.If yes, what percentage of medications used are tablets, herbs, creams, etc.?
    3.Should we do something to control the admission process itself or its regularity?
    4.Do we have to use traditional wood as a material, or suitable materials of our choice?
    5.Should it be something for the home or something that you always have with you?
    6.What is the approximate normal size of traditional boxes for storing herbs, medicines?

    Hello Team7! This is our answer to your previous questions:
    1. The type of the medicine: we decided that we only need Chinese traditional medicine for this time’s brief. For western medicine, while patients buy them, they already have all the message we need on the external packing, and they usually don’t need special ways to storage them. So, the problems from our grandparents are mostly from the storage of Chinese traditional medicine which is harder.
    2. About the proportion: Actually, we don’t have a set ratio of medicines, because the ratio of medicine has always been recommended by the doctors according to different type of illness. Therefore, all you need to consider is the forms and types of medicines, which we have mentioned in the previous brief: liquids, dry herbs,pills(mostly it’s wet, round and big. We will add a picture of this pill.)
    3. In fact, in China, if we need to drink traditional Chinese medicine for treatment, we will go to a specialized traditional Chinese medicine clinic where specialized doctors can dispense medicine for us. They may give us a course of medicine, and after you finish drinking it, we will go to the hospital to see if you need the medicine for the next course of treatment. But traditional Chinese medicine can also nourish the body. If it is to nourish the body, then I may feel good today and eat less. If I don’t feel good today, I may increase it in moderation. Therefore, it is important to determine the dosage I should eat less or more, and the doctor may give me a specific range, such as taking 2 to 7. May feedback on the physical condition of the elderly be helpful in controlling the amount of traditional Chinese medicine consumed.
    4. About the area: We need it to be placed at home. Because when older people use Chinese traditional medicine, we always use it at home instead of taking them outside (there are so many reasons such as we need to boil them、warm the liquid up、cut the pill in half and eat them with the liquid medicine).
    5. About the Materials: We suggest you guys use any material you want. Mention traditional woods in our brief are just a example and a small tip for you guys, in case of you guys want to know which material is used to storage them in the traditional way. Again, you guys are free to choose any materials you like, but need to be reasonable! 😀
    6. About the size: Medicine box are usually 10 inches to 17 inches. You guys can choose one size within this range, but please don’t smaller or bigger than this.

    That’s all the answer to your questions! Thank you so much for your question again, let us know that you guys are thinking. If you have more details want to know, contact us whenever you want. If you guys are clear and fully understand of everything, tell us you know, and you guys can start with the conceptions stuff! Good luck and have a nice day!
