南五加皮又名五加皮,北五加皮又名香加皮。由于两者外观性状较相似,且均有祛风湿、强筋骨等功效、故在药品使用中至今仍有南、北五加皮混用现象;为能准确用药避免两者混淆,77年版《中国药典》(一部)已将南五加皮定名为五加皮,北五加皮定名为香加皮。并分别收载,以示不同。现就南、北五加皮两者间的区别加以简明阐述。 South Wujiapi is also known as Wujiapi. North Wujiapi is also known as Xiangjiapi. Because the appearance of the two are similar, and both have effects such as rheumatism, strong bones and muscles, there is still the phenomenon of mixed use of North and South Acacia in the use of drugs; in order to accurately use drugs to avoid confusion between the two, the 77th edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia “(Part I) has named the South Wujiapi as Wujiapi and the North Wujiapi as Xiangjiapi.” Separated and shown separately. The differences between Wujiapi in the North and the South are briefly explained.
