The invention discloses a method for reducing the antiseptic residue in the extract of ginseng, ginseng leaf, ginseng stem, and ginseng fruit. The technology is characterized by comprising the following steps: oxidizing ginseng pulp, subjecting the ginseng pulp to a fresh-keeping treatment, disinfecting, alkalizing, soaking in hot water, extracting, separating, condensing, diluting, separating, condensing, and drying; alkalizing the ginseng, ginseng leaf, and ginseng stem, washing, extracting, separating, condensing, diluting, separating, condensing, and drying. The antiseptic is alkalized and decomposed by sodium carbonate; the ferrous sulfate is taken as the flocculant to remove the color, metal ions, and salt-type antiseptics; macroporous absorption resin absorbs the effective component and does not absorb the antiseptic, thus the water-soluble antiseptic is separated; the anion/cation resin is used to separate and remove the salt-type antiseptics; the solution is evaporated and condensed for two times, during the process the antiseptics are evaporated with the water steam; and during the drying process, because benzoic acid can rapidly sublimate at 100 DEG C, the antiseptic (benzoic acid) is quickly sublimated. Through the provided method, people can obtain products with complete active components, the antiseptic residues in the products are extremely low, or the products even contain no antiseptic residue.
