Take American ginseng properly to enhance the anti-hypoxia ability of the body. If there is a respiratory infection, it should be cured before entering the plateau. Oxygen and drugs for preventing and treating acute altitude sickness, such as Rhodiola, Gaoyuanning and Nuodikang capsules, should be prepared as much as possible, as well as drugs, antibiotics and vitamins for preventing and treating colds, just in case.
