- Abstract: There are many problems in the use of Bupleurum medicinal materials such as confusion in variety, unclearness in origin and quality problems, e.g., adulteration of authentic Bupleurum and mixing of non-medicinal parts. Therefore, the quality of Chinese patent medicines containing Bupleurum chinense is variable, and it is necessary to establish targeted quality control methods. Based on the quality control methods of Bupleurum and its Chinese patent medicines, combined with the example of Xiaochaihu granules, this paper discussed the quality standard improvement and supplementary test methods of Bupleurum and its Chinese patent medicines, aiming to provide reference for the quality control, quality supervision and standardized production of Chinese patent medicines containing Bupleurum and promote the improvement of its intrinsic quality.
