Abstract:
Through the investigation on functions of E.rutaecarpain ancient herbal literatures,ancient prescriptions and the Chinese Pharmacopoeia(2010 edition),it showed that the basic function of E.rutaecarpa recorded in herbal literatures through dynasties was similar to that of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia.However,the disappearance of Euodia rutaecarpa's functions in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia were dampness-eliminating,blood-activating,spleen-invigorating,phlegm-eliminating,wind-dispelling,and guiding fire to its source,which had been recorded in ancient herb literatures.ThePu-Ji-Fang database management system contained prescriptions with Euodia rutaecarpa in the treatment of asthenia,Bi syndrome,stroke,scabies,edema,phlegm,leukorrhagia,epigastric pain,menoxenia,lochiostasis,fractures,sore,aphtha,and etc,which were absent from the Chinese Pharmacopoeia.In conclusion,we preliminarily confirmed that Euodia rutaecarpahad potential functions in activating blood to resolve stasis,dispelling wind and eliminating dampness,nourishing deficiency and invigorating the spleen,resolving toxins,relieving cough and eliminating phlegm,soothing liver to stop wind,as well as stopping bleeding.
