Collection of Chinese Patent Medicines (English-Chinese Edition): 1,412 Formulas with Names, Ingredients, Actions & Cautions

Collection of Chinese Patent Medicines (English-Chinese Edition): 1,412 Formulas with Names, Ingredients, Actions & Cautions

Each Entry Gives the Chinese Name, Pinyin, Full Prescription, Therapeutic Actions and Cautions — With Three English-Chinese Indexes for Quick Lookup, Covering Internal, External, Gynecological and Pediatric Medicines
This is not a textbook of traditional Chinese medicine theory, and it is not a consumer guide to herbal remedies. It is a bilingual reference work—1,412 Chinese patent medicines, each one laid out in the same five fields: the Chinese name, the pinyin, the full prescription with every ingredient, the therapeutic actions and indications, and the cautions. Everything is translated from the original Chinese into English, and the book is indexed three ways—by Chinese name, by English name, and by the botanical name of each herb—so you can find what you need whether you are working from the Chinese, the English, or the Latin. The intended readers are professionals: export departments at manufacturers, technical and regulatory staff, and teachers and students in Chinese medicine programs. If you work with Chinese patent medicines across languages—formulas, indications, ingredients, precautions—and need a reliable desk reference rather than a general introduction, this is it.
