doi:10.19803/j.1672-8629.2022.04.02

Abstract

Abstract: Objective To summarize the toxicity of 206 kinds of toxic medicinal materials, so as to provide scientific basis for rational utilization and in-depth development of them. Methods The list of toxic medicinal materials, search the literature on from the establishment to september 20, 2021 toxic medicinal materials reported by CNKI, VIP, Wanfang data, Chinese biomedical literature data and PubMed from the establishment to September 20, 2021 was analyzed and summarized. Results Among 206 kinds of toxic medicinal materials, the toxicity about 109 kinds were researched, including renal toxicity, hepatotoxicity and cardiovascular toxicity. Conclusion The toxic components and toxic mechanism of most toxic medicinal materials are still unknown, and more research to do for their safe and effective clinical use.

Key words: toxic medicinal materials, toxicity, differences analysis
