Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the functions and characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) from plant skin and their Chinese patent medicines and explore the related laws of the medicinal tissue, property, taste, efficacy, and clinical application, so as to strengthen the theory of identifying symptoms for qualities and provide references for the development and utilization of TCM from plant skin and their Chinese patent medicines. MethodBy reviewing the 2020 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia and some local pharmacopeias, TCM from plant skin and their Chinese patent medicines were screened out, and the characteristics, functions, and precautions of TCM from plant skin and their Chinese patent medicines were summarized. Statistical analysis was carried out with Excel. ResultA total of 62 TCM from plant skin were found, mainly distributed in one kingdom, three phyla, and 31 families. In terms of the family genus, Rutaceae>Leguminosae>Cucurbitaceae. In terms of the medicinal tissue, bark>root bark>fruit bark>seed bark. In terms of property and taste, warm>cold>plain>cool>hot, and bitter>sweet=pungent>acidic. In terms of meridians, lung>liver>spleen>heart>colorectal>kidney>stomach=bladder. In terms of TCM classification, most of them belong to the category of heat-clearing medicines. There were 485 types of Chinese patent medicines from plant skin, with the most Chinese patent medicines containing Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium. Among the forms of administration, pills were the most predominant. In terms of the tastes of the medicines, bitter and sweet flavors predominated. In terms of functions, medicines for strengthening the body resistance were the most. For the precautions, contraindications during pregnancy were the most common. ConclusionThere is a correlation among medicinal tissue, property, taste, efficacy, and clinical application of TCM from plant skin. It is also necessary to pay attention to the contraindications of the medicines and rationally choose TCM from plant skin and their Chinese patent medicines under the guidance of TCM theory based on syndrome differentiation and treatment.
