It is particularly important to summarize the historical development of the composition of classical prescriptions
so as to define their origin
taste efficacy and syndrome taboos. It is also the source to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the whole prescription. As a commonly used traditional Chinese medicinal material
Lycii Cortex is widely used and has a good prospect for research and development. There are five prescriptions containing wolfberry bark in the
