First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether Shenling Baizhu granules, a traditional Chinese medicine, can prevent low-risk colorectal adenomas from recurring after they are removed during a colonoscopy. About 624 adults aged 18-70 will take the granules three times daily for six months or receive no additional treatment. Researchers will check for new polyps within three years to see if the granules help reduce recurrence.
