Along with intensification of social and life pressures as well as the interference from various psychological stresses, the number of people suffering from insomnia is constantly increasing, and resistance and addiction of western medicine treatment have received much attention. Safe, effective and characteristic therapeutic drug are urgently needed in clinical practices. Chinese eight-word principle of health preservation via dredging collaterals integrates health-preservation quintessence of traditional major schools of Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism and medicine, and becomes a new theory guiding health preservation in traditional Chinese medicine. The pathogenic characteristics of "deficiency of kidney-essence, insufficiency of heart blood and loss of spirit and consciousness" as well as the therapeutic methods of "tonifying the kidney, invigorating the brain, nourishing the heart and tranquilizing" were proposed on the basis of "conserving strength" and "calming" theory included in Chinese eight-word principle of health preservation via dredging collaterals and in combination with the opinions of "primordial spirit in brain" and "consciousness spirit in heart" described by recent medical doctor ZHANG Xichun in Intergrating Chinese and Western Medicine. The development of innovative Chinese medicine Yishen Yangxin Anshen tablets reflects theoretical innovation, original formula, outstanding pharmacological characteristics and definite clinical effect, and proves scientific value of Chinese eight-word principle of health preservation via dredging collaterals.
