Your step-by-step formula builder
Search Single Herb
No need to type the full name of the herbs—simply enter part of the spelling, and we'll show you all related options to choose from. You can also search by pinyin, 中文, or Latin pharmacological name for a faster and easier search experience!
Add Formulas
Quickly add multiple or single classic formulas or personal saved formulas, and all the ingredients will automatically load. Practitioners can easily modify them—whether it's adding or removing herbs or adjusting dosages to suit your preferences.
Dosage Calculation Conversion
We streamline the process by determining the total weight of the order upfront, and provide standardized weight per package, eliminating any confusion over fractional weights. Our herb extract granules follow a 5:1 ratio, so when you modify your formula, our software automatically adjusts the dosages, preserving the original ratios.
Safety Alerts
Practitioners will be instantly alerted when the prescription contains any herb contraindications (such as the 18 Incompatibilities 十八反 or 19 Antagonisms 十九畏), or if the dosage exceeds safe limits, helping ensure patient safety.
Save Your Formulas
With just one click, you can easily save your formulas, rename them, and quickly access them later, making future organization and retrieval effortless.
Write Prescription Notes
Create personalized prescription notes using our preset templates. Simply select options from a dropdown menu to specify when the herb should be taken and the correct dosage. We streamlines your prescriptions process, making them easier to follow.
