There is a global movement calling for the integration of West medicine (WM) and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)[1].The World Health Organization suggests that health care would be improved by integrating traditional and complementary medicines into the practices of health care service delivery and self-health care[1].The WM and TCM are commonly integrated in the contemporary practice of medicine in China.About 90％ of the general hospitals and 75％ of health centers have TCM departments[2].Even in WM hospitals,around 40％ of the medicines prescribed are TCM.Similarly,in the TCM hospitals 40％ of all prescribed drugs are WM[3].Meanwhile,over 80％ of Chinese patients have received TCM treatment at some point in their lives[2].However,differences exist in typical use of prescribed medications between WM and TCM and can result in the incorrect use,thus leading to concs about the efficacy and safety of integrative treatment[4].
