THE FIRST TYPE: PREPARED HERBAL MEDICINE

  Prepared herbal medicine is processed based on the guidance of the basic theories of traditional Chinese medicine, through the three major processes of cleaning, cutting and processing to make finished products of certain specifications.

1. Cleaning

The medicinal materials after the clean selection are called "clean medicinal materials". "Clean medicinal materials" means that medicinal materials are selected and winnowed, water-selected, sieved, cut, scraped, removed, brushed, skewered, and washed to achieve the specified quality standards for clarity.

2. Cutting

The net medicinal materials can be cut fresh or dried, all of which need to be moistened and softened. Softening medicinal materials requires "less foaming and more moisturizing" and "drug penetration" to prevent the loss of water-soluble medicinal ingredients in medicinal materials. The cutting methods include cutting, shearing, planing, chopping, chopping, pounding, and velvet making. The cutting requires a certain specification of thickness and particle size, and the cut pieces are dried to facilitate preservation and ensure quality.

3. Shelling

Baking refers to the process of taking clean or cut clean medicinal materials and clean tablets, according to the processing rules formulated in the theory of Chinese medicine, and using the prescribed processing technology to make medicines. Baking methods include: heat treatment: such as frying, blanching, calcining, making charcoal, steaming, boiling, simmering and so on. Add specific auxiliary materials and heat treatment: wine, vinegar, salt, ginger broiled, honey broiled, medicinal juice, etc. In addition, there are also processes such as frosting and water flying.
