Since the Western Han Dynasty

with the gradual opening of the Silk Road

Chinese medicine and western regions medicine have met unexpectedly and have had a good integration. During the period of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China

western learning was gradually introduced

and western medicine was introduced into China. It had a fierce collision with Chinese medicine. Some Chinese medicine scholars recognized the shortcomings of traditional Chinese medicine and put forward the medical thought of "integrating Chinese and western medicine". Since the founding of the People’s Republic of China

the "integration of Chinese and western medicine"has been proposed. At present

the combination of Chinese and western medicine mainly has three modes of "Chinese medicine for western use"

"western medicine for Chinese use"and "integrated Chinese and western medicine".
