List of kampo herbs/ja: Difference between revisions

'''''Kampō''''' (or ''Kanpō'', 漢方) medicine is the [[Japan]]ese study and adaptation of [[traditional Chinese medicine]]. In 1967, the Japanese [[Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (Japan)|Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare]] approved four ''[[kampo]]'' medicines for reimbursement under the National Health Insurance (NHI) program. In 1976, 82 [[kampo]] medicines were approved by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. Currently, 148 [[kampo list|''kampo'' medicines]] are approved for reimbursement.

Tsumura (ツムラ) is the leading maker making 128 of the 148 kampo medicines. The "count" column shows in how many of these 128 formulae the herb is found. The most common herb  is [[Glycyrrhiza|Glycyrrhizae Radix]] (Chinese liquorice root). It is in 94 of the 128 Tsumura formulae. Other common herbs are [[Ginger|Zingiberis Rhizoma]] (ginger) (51 of 128 formulae) and [[Paeonia lactiflora|Paeoniae Radix]] (Chinese peony root) (44 of 128 formulae).
