中医对“毒”的认识与现代毒理学、毒副作用不尽相同，中医传统上认为“毒”和“药”相通，“毒”既可表示药物的治疗作用，也可表示药物的毒副作用。正是认为中药具有治疗作用和毒副作用的双重性，中医强 调辨证论治、方剂配伍、药物炮制，从而弭除药物安全性问题。随着现代药理毒理、药物警戒等手段与中医药研 究结合，中药安全性研究有了新的发展。

Understanding of "poison" of traditional Chinese medicine is not the same with modern toxicology and toxicity. Chinese medicine traditionally considered "poison" and "effectiveness" can be communicated with each other. "poison" can be said the therapeutical effect of drugs, also said the side effects of drugs. It is thought that with the therapeutic effect and toxicity, drug safety issues can be removed. With the combination of modern pharmacological toxicology and the research of traditional Chinese medicine has undergone a new development.
