Abstract:
Due to the profound theoretical rationale, perfect diagnosis and treatment system, and characteristic medicinal resources, Tibetan medicine has been passed down to the present day as one of the four traditional medicine systems all over the world. With the development of modern society and the change in people's concept of seeking medical services, Tibetan medicine has gradually attracted wide attention by virtue of its natural, green and safe diagnosis and treatment characteristics, which enables it to be vigo-rously developed and inherited. There are numerous ancient books on Tibetan medicine, covering a large number of ancient prescriptions, which has laid a solid foundation for later scholars to thoroughly investigate the diagnosis and treatment rules in Tibetan medicine and apply them to modern clinical practice. Screening the classic prescriptions that meet modern clinical needs from those numerous ancient books is a new direction in the inheritance and development of Tibetan medicine. On the basis of historical origin and current application status of ancient prescriptions in Tibetan medicine, this paper preliminarily elaborated the definition of classic prescriptions of Tibetan medicine and their general screening principles and precautions, and also discussed the modern inheritance paths of classic prescriptions in Tibetan medicine from basic research, post-marketing evaluation, and the development of novel preparations. Considering the shortcomings in the present study, the key technical issues mentioned need to be more deeply explored and analyzed in future studies.
