Rational drug use is the basic principle that medical workers should follow, and it is also the eternal theme of clinical pharmacy. With the characteristics and advantages of traditional Chinese medicine being more and more recognized and accepted by people, the rational use of traditional Chinese medicine has also become a topic before us. The emergence of aristolochic acid renal damage has sounded the alarm for us. As a pharmacist, I have the responsibility and obligation to use my ignorance to provide medical staff and readers with some reference knowledge about medication. It has been brewing for a long time. Under the leadership of Shanghai Society of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine and with the support of Shanghai Science and Technology Education Press, several like-minded people worked together and completed the collection, collation and compilation of some collected materials for half a year.
This book is not only of high reference value to clinical frontline medical workers, but also a useful reference book for self-care of patients applying traditional Chinese medicine. As the author's colleagues, I thank them for their hard work and efforts, and hope that more people will care about the development of Chinese medicine, the rational use of Chinese medicine, and make contributions to the world of Chinese medicine.
