Abstract:
“Decoction later” is one characteristic feature of the special decoction of Chinese materia medica (CMM). However, some patients have misunderstanding or lack of basic knowledge about CMM for “decoction later” leading to the bad clinical effect or even toxic effects because of inappropriate decoction. This study attempts to analyze the causes of CMM for decoction later based on ancient and modern literatures, and put forward exploratory thinking on methods for decoction later in order to provide scientific evidence for promoting clinical rational drug use for decoction later of CMM.
