Abstract
|
The Treatise on Febrile Diseases written by medical sage, ZHANG Zhong-jing, has been honoured as the "forerunner of formula books". His principles of formula composition are fantastic and abstruse, especially in the method of constraining nature and remaining function. This study compares this method and the combined method in treating cold and heat and analyzes the experienced prescriptions in using constraining nature and remaining function. With this prescription method the application range can be expended and the clinical effect can be increased. |
