Analysis of Huangfu Mi's application of Zhang Zhongjing's prescription
Zhang Zhongjing and Huangfu Mi lived in a very close age.The former's Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases became the"ancestor of the prescription book",while the latter's A and B Classics of Acupuncture and Moxibus-tion also became the classic of acupuncture and moxibustion.The publication of the two monographs jointly promoted the formation and development of traditional Chinese medicine clinical therapy.Huangfu Mi believes that the medical path is divided into two systems:acupuncture and decoction.Decoction medicine has been perfected by Zhang Zhongjing and Wang Shuhe.However,in the circulation of acupuncture theory,the existing acupuncture classics have been incomplete,and there are many errors,which need to be further compiled and sorted out.On the basis of this medical research and analysis,Huangfu Mi wrote A and B Classics of A cupuncture and Moxibustion.Therefore,Huangfu Mi's medical academic thought system is not limited to acupuncture and moxibustion,people should not ignore the fact that Huangfu Mi is also good at de-coction,especially the use of Zhongjing classical prescription.Through the analysis of Huangfu Mi's relevant writings and relevant historical materials,we can know that Huangfu Mi highly respected Zhang Zhongjing,and conducted in-depth re-search on Zhongjing classical prescription,set a precedent for the study of Zhongjing classical prescription,clarified the ori-gin,function,usage and adverse reactions of Hanshi Powder,introduced the provisions of classical prescription into the A and B Classics of Acupuncture and Moxibustion and improved the theory of acupuncture and moxibustion.The medical thought of Huangfu Mi attaching equal importance to acupuncture and medicine is worth inheriting and developing.
