Five-clawed dragon herbal medicine picture

Jade grape root was originally a folk herb in Yunnan Province, and its known application history is about one hundred years. There are no records of herbal medicines of different generations. During the Chinese War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Yunnan Taiyang Pharmacy used the root of the jasper grape to make a powder called "Jingang Powder", which was a famous medicine. Because it was a secret at that time, it was impossible to expand production and conduct in-depth research.

After liberation, the Kunming Red Cross Hospital used the original raw materials and renamed it "Red Cross Trauma Powder" for further production and use. In 1958, after investigation, the original green plant was found out, and the problem of raw materials was solved. Kunming "6.26" Pharmaceutical Factory produced the finished medicine "Wangshang Powder". Jade grape root has been included in the 1977 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia.
