INTRODUCTION
The quality of the work of the TCM
practitioner prescribing TCM medicines depends on two things:
- the choice of the proper medicine(s) and the appliance of the correct dosage(s)
which in fact is a result of the quality of the education of the prescriber and
- the quality of the medicine itself that lies in the hand of the dispensing
pharmacist and his suppliers.
Safety and efficacy, the two things that patients rightfully demand from
treatments they pay for, are build on the two qualities mentioned above.
The involvement of science in both of
these topics has moved forward during the last years. At this conference some
exciting recent results will be discussed between scientists and clinicians.
