Abstract:
Introduction:A study sample of 78 manuscripts was selected from the 1,223 transferred from the
8th Khalkha Jebtsundamba’s Library to the National Library of Mongolia. This sample consists of single, representative volumes from unique, multi-volume texts. Of the 78 manuscripts analyzed by Tungalag Batmunkh, eight (approx. 10%) are categorized as medical treatises. However, a systematic study conducted by Academician Bold Sharav identified a total of nine distinct volumes, thereby establishing a precise corpus of the works. One of these is the book “The book summarizes a number of conventional formulas from Tong Ren Tang Pharmaceutical Company”, which is one of the sources that has not yet been researched. This study was undertaken to determine the origin of the book, terminology, number, and category of medicines, and to clarify the drug action of some formulas.
To determine the origin, terminology, number, and classification of the ancient medical book “The book
summarizes a number of conventional formulas from Tong Ren Tang Pharmaceutical Company,” and
to clarify the characteristics of the medicines included in the chapter “Drugs for stroke diseases.”
Methods:We employed methods such as the study of original texts and sources, and the checklist
method.
Conclusion:The medications used in this book for stroke have the following benefits: thrombolytic,
bone strengthening, tendon pain relief, support free breathing, relieve fever, antiplatelet, cure wind,
regeneration bone marrow, improve testicle semen, and provide physical radiance, strength, and
