Abstract:
A survey on drug resources and identification or the commercial drugs showed that Heshouwu was derived from Polygonum multiflorum and the roots of another two species of the same family were misused as Heshouwu. The roots of 6 species of Cynanchum genus, Asclepiadaceae were used as Baishouwu in different regions. The index of botanical identification was listed. Botanical origins, distribution, production and sale of "Shouwu" were investigated.
