| Remarks | The Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China defines "Fuzi (附子)" as the processed tuber (lateral roots) of Aconitum carmichaeli. The processed aconite root, which is compressed and heated, is used for many kinds of Kampo drug products. Since aconitum alkaloids have strong toxicity, there are many processes to reduce it. It is called "Yanfuzi (塩附子)," "Paofuzi (炮附子)," "Heifupian (黒附片)" or "Baifupian (白附片)" depending on each process. - Chinese "Yanfuzi (塩附子)", the tuber of Aconitum carmichaeli, is half dried after rinsed in the solution of salt water and bittern. - "Paofuzi (炮附子)" is the dried "Yanfuzi (塩附子)" after being peeled and divided lengthwise. - Both "Heifupian (黒附片)" and "Refupian (熟附片)" are made as follows : rinse roots in bittern, divide them lengthwise, stain with dye stuff, dry after steaming. - Though "Baifupian (白附片)" is the similar product to "Heifupian (黒附片)", it is barked and smoked by sulfur untill it becomes white at its final process. The Japanese "Shirakawa-bushi," the tuber of Aconitum japonicum, is made as follows : rinse it in salt water, coat with lime and dry. It is mentioned in the Japanese Pharmacopoeia that there are three ways in processing the aconite tuber. 1: Autoclaving. 2: Heating or autoclaving after rinsing in salt or rock salt solution. 3: Treating with calcium hydroxide after rinsing in salt solution. | ||||||
