In recent years

in order to further improve the quality of decoction pieces of Chinese crude drugs

many related basic research work around the processing of decoction pieces of Chinese crude drugs have been carried out by relevant experts. Many opinions and suggestions on the revision of the

National Regulations on the Processing of Decoction Pieces of Chinese Crude Drugs

were put forward. In order to further improve the preparation of the

National Regulations on the Processing of Decoction Pieces of Chinese Crude Drugs

strengthen the guidance on the revision of local processing standards

and clarify issues related to the circulation

use and supervision of decoction pieces

the Department of Drug Registration Management of the National Medical Products Administration and the Chinese Pharmacopoeia Commission have organized experts to discuss these problems. The author only puts forward some suggestions on related issues in order to achieve the purpose of " throwing a brick to attract jade" . ①The study of the national regulations on the processing of decoction pieces of Chinese crude drugs should be standardized on the basis of the inheritance for the specific process. ②The revision of the

National Regulations on the Processing of Decoction Pieces of Chinese Crude Drugs

should be improved on the basis of the existing research results. The regulation of the processing process should not be excessively parameterized

the revision of the

National Regulations on the Processing of Decoction Pieces of Chinese Crude Drugs

also should be synchronization to the revision of the

Chinese Pharmacopoeia

. ③The contents of the

Chinese Pharmacopoeia

and the

National Regulations on the Processing of Decoction Pieces of Chinese Crude Drugs

should have different emphasis. The former should focus on the standard

while the latter should focus on the processing process. ④The revision of local (provincial) processing specifications only collects the pieces that truly have local features and clinical characteristics. ⑤Decoction pieces of local Chinese crude drugs can only be applied at the place of production (province). They are allowed to be produced and distributed in other provinces

municipalities and autonomous regions after through filing. ⑥For the decoction pieces of Chinese crude drugs with large-scale use contained in local processing specifications

they should be included in the

National Regulations on the Processing of Decoction Pieces of Chinese Crude Drugs

as soon as possible

and their quality standards should be included in the

Chinese Pharmacopoeia

.
