About Bead Embalaxe de Medicamentos para Nenos

Hai un dito chinés que di que a boa medicina é amarga, pero boa para a saúde. A medicina tradicional chinesa sempre foi coñecida polo seu sabor amargo, e a maioría dos nenos non queren tomala cando están enfermos. Na cultura popular chinesa, moitas persoas teñen o costume de comer un caramelo despois de beber medicina tradicional chinesa. Inspirado neste costume, este deseño engade perlas de sabor a froita á botella de líquido oral, que son sabores de laranxa, mango e mazá verde. Este deseño converte o proceso de beber medicina, que orixinalmente é doloroso para os nenos, en algo máis divertido e agradable.

Unique Properties: This is a fruit-flavored antivirus oral liquid design for children, which consists of a bottle containing traditional Chinese medicine and an attached burst bead with sweet liquid inside. When taking it, after drinking the last sip of medicine, children can squeeze the burst bead to let out the sweet liquid, so that there will be a bit of slight sweetness to relieve the bitterness of medicine. The child can also squeeze the bead while drinking the medicine to make it a bit tastier.

Production Technology: The body of this product adopts the hot-pressing process, allowing the production process to be simple and efficient, which can effectively save production and transportation costs. At the same time, the whole container is made of biodegradable plastics, which make the whole design environmentally friendly, simple and easy to use.
Inspiration: Traditional Chinese medicine has always been known for its bitter taste, and most children are unwilling to take it when ill. In Chinese folk, many people have the habit of eating a candy after drinking traditional Chinese medicine. Inspired by this custom, this design adds fruit-flavored burst beads to the oral liquid bottle, which are orange, mango and green apple flavors. This design makes the process of drinking medicine, which is originally painful for children, more fun and enjoyable.
Project Duration: The project started in August 2022 and finished in April 2023 in Guangzhou, China.
Operation Flow: When taking this oral liquid, remove the cap by breaking the top of the bottle. After drinking the last sip of medicine, children can squeeze the burst bead to let out the sweet liquid, so that there will be a bit of slight sweetness to relieve the bitterness of medicine. The child can also squeeze the bead while drinking the medicine to make it a bit tastier. This design makes the process of drinking medicine, which is originally painful for children, more fun and enjoyable.
