Features: The data for this book comes from the questionnaire survey conducted as part of a research project commissioned by the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 1999, in which the authors participated. The questionnaires were filled out by experienced traditional Chinese medicine experts or with the assistance of their successors. To ensure the authenticity of the experiences of renowned TCM practitioners, this book maintains the original form as much as possible, with only minor standardization and unification of certain medical terminology, such as drug names, formula names, and disease names, as well as some textual refinements. This book is suitable for professional TCM practitioners and enthusiasts. The book is divided into two parts: Formulas and Chinese Medicine. Each part is organized by formula names and drug names as entries, with each entry consisting of two sections: Overview and Experiences of Various Experts. The Overview is a summary and analysis of the experiences of the 330 experienced TCM experts who participated in the questionnaire survey, providing readers with a general understanding of the application scope, indications, modifications, dosages, and contraindications of the formulas and drugs. The Experiences of Various Experts section lists the unique application experiences of each physician, allowing readers to understand the distinctive uses of the formulas and drugs by different experts. The book introduces the experiences of 307 experienced TCM experts.
