RESUMO
TCM variety derived from classical or proved prescriptions and was improved through the innovation and development of clinical practices,controlling of medicinal raw material and producing process.The current protection system of TCM variety does not match the developing rule of TCM,in that there is no particular article to regulate traditional classical or proved prescriptions,self-made TCM preparations in hospitals,the genuineness of medicinal raw material and manufacturing techniques,and also lacks the relevant investment return mechanism.It was recommended of creating TCM protection category,protecting self-made TCM preparations in hospitals,regulating genuineness of medicinal raw material and establishing know-how protecting mechanisms,while protecting test data were suggested to be introduced for perfecting the protection system of TCM variety.
