A New Strategy for Deleting Animal drugs from Traditional Chinese Medicines based on Modified Yimusake Formula
Abstract Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), such as Uyghur Medicine (UM) has been used in clinical treatment for many years. TCM is featured as multiple targets and complex mechanisms of action, which is normally a combination of medicinal herbs and sometimes even contains certain rare animal medic...

Abstract Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), such as Uyghur Medicine (UM) has been used in clinical treatment for many years.

A question arises as to whether these animal materials can be removed replaced from TCM applications due to their valuable rare resources or animal ethics. Here, we select a classical UM Yimusake formula, which contains 3 animal drugs and other 8 herbs, and has got wealthy experience and remarkable achievements in treating erectile dysfunction (ED) in China.
