Tibetan medicine is an important part of Chinese traditional medicine and an important representative of Chinese national medicine.

Tibetan medicine has a long history. It is the medical experience accumulated by Tibetan people in the special environment of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau. Its classic work "four medical classics" was written in the Tubo Dynasty in the second half of the 8th century. It was written by the famous Tibetan medicine expert Yutuo Gongbu on New Year's day. The combination of Tibetan medicine and Tibetan astronomy and calendar is a huge and complex medical system. Tibetan medicine is based on the theory of "water, fire, earth, wind and air" and the theory of "dragon, Chiba and Bacon". It takes the plants, animals, minerals and some "Southern medicine" of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau as the basic medicine, and adopts the practice mode of adapting to the plateau environment and nomadic life, It has a unique curative effect on common diseases, frequently occurring diseases and endemic diseases in high altitude hypoxia environment, and its health culture has been paid more and more attention by the medical community.

Due to the vast territory of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, high mountains and steep waters, the ethnic and regional characteristics of Tibetan medicine culture are obvious, and the diagnosis, medical technology and medicine of Tibetan medicine are often different in different regions and schools. In recent decades, with the construction of Tibetan medicine and the extensive development of academic exchanges, the inheritance and promotion of Tibetan medicine have made remarkable achievements.

According to the principle of Tibetan medicine, this medicine is made from natural precious and rare Tibetan medicinal materials growing in the special ecological environment of the roof of the world, and is prepared strictly according to the traditional process. Its material selection is superior, processing is special, workmanship is exquisite, function is extensive, side effect is small, medicine collection, processing, formula all follow the ancient method, so as to ensure the magical curative effect. More than one thousand years of clinical practice has proved that qiqiwei Zhenzhu pill has the effects of calming the nerves, calming the nerves, dredging channels and activating collaterals, harmonizing Qi and blood, and reviving the brain and resuscitation. It has a wide range of uses. It also has the functions of nourishing body and improving immunity.
