Features: This book is revised based on the second edition. The author has selected over 1,800 prescriptions from a large number of traditional Chinese medicine formulas published in domestic medical journals during the early years of the founding of the country and until early 2003. These prescriptions have been clinically verified for significant efficacy, are simple to prepare, use easily obtainable herbs, and are suitable for use by grassroots doctors. Each prescription includes its composition, clinical modifications, preparation and usage, as well as efficacy. The book is organized by category, including Internal Medicine, Surgery, Ophthalmology and Otolaryngology, Gynecology, Pediatrics, Dermatology, and Oncology. Compared to the second edition, this version adds nearly 400 effective prescriptions published in medical journals in the past five years, while removing some prescriptions with poor efficacy or complex preparation methods, making the content more up-to-date and practical. This book is suitable for doctors in various clinical departments, especially grassroots doctors in rural areas, factories, mines, and communities, and can also be used for family healthcare.
