Abstract

China possesses the world’s largest resource of medicinal plants, which are documented in several Chinese medicinal books and Pharmacopoeias. Around 5,000 herbal, animal and mineral drugs have been used in China alone (Xiao 1983). In Vol. 1 of the 2010 Chinese Pharmacopoeia, 527 of the total number of monographs inclusive those of animals and minerals are devoted to herbal drugs. In the Appendix of the same Pharmacopoeia, formulas (fixed herbal drug combinations, so-called Chinese fixed patent Medicines) are also listed. In western countries (Europe, the USA and other countries), from 75 to 150 herbal drugs of Chinese origin are most frequently used and are obtained either through markets or prescriptions by doctors trained in Chinese medicine.
