Abstract

The use of Chinese medicine is quite common in Taiwan. In this review, we have highlighted recent literature on clinical studies of Chinese medicine. The first part deals with "therapeutic studies", and the second part with adverse reactions and interactions. There are encouraging examples of effective Chinese medicinal therapy. On the other hand, certain adverse reactions and interactions due to Chinese medicines also call for quality control and increased awareness. Finally, some implications and related issues are discussed.
