Prescription against Malaria in Chinese medicine Book ancient

| Youyou Tu wins Nobil prize and TCM Book |
常房前屋後玩耍至於，折枝一二呼朋引伴。又聽老人言此物能消腫，每每于蚊蟲
叮咬后，揉蒿葉至紅腫處，未幾，則腫痛消已。雖有此種功效，但其臭惡人，能
辟邪，端午前後，遍插門楣。卻不成想此外竟能有大用，
救億萬免於死難，扶生靈遠離塗炭，真如屠呦呦樣大隱隱于野哉！

Tu Youyou (Chinese: 屠呦呦; born 30 December 1930) is a Chinese medical scientist, pharmaceutical chemist, and educator best known for discovering artemisinin (also known as Qinghaosu) and dihydroartemisinin, used to treat malaria, which saved millions of lives. Her discovery of artemisinin and its treatment of malaria is regarded as a significant breakthrough of tropical medicine in the 20th century and health improvement for people of tropical developing countries in South Asia, Africa, and South America. For her work, Tu received the 2011 Lasker Award in clinical medicine and the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Tu is the first native Chinese in history to receive the Nobel Prize in natural sciences and Lasker Award, who was educated in China and whose work was carried out within China.
Chinese premier Li Keqiang congratulated Tu on winning Nobel Prize for medicine
In the early 1970s, Chinese scientists screening traditional Chinese medicinal herbs in the search for new antimalarials isolated artemisinin from the herb known as Qing Hao (generally identified as Artemisia annua L. but may have originally referred to A. apiacea) Artemisinin is an unusual sesquiterpene lactone incorporating an endoperoxide group. It has potent antiplasmodial activity and
was shown in clinical trials to be highly effective against malaria, including patients with cerebral malaria and patients with malaria parasites resistant to chloroquine . In contrast to other antimalarials such as quinine, (used for treating chloroquine-resistant malaria), artemisinin was found to be remarkably non-toxic and the importance of its discovery against the background of a rising incidence of multidrug-resistant malaria parasites cannot be underestimated. Several semi-synthetic artemisinin derivatives including artemether, arteether and sodium artesunate are now in clinical use worldwide for the treatment of malaria . However, antimalarial drugs such as the artemisinin derivatives are expensive and are not accessible to the majority of people who are at risk of malaria, especially in Africa with the result that approximately 1 million people, mostly children, die from malaria each year .

The desperate need for affordable medicines for the treatment of malaria has stimulated the search for alternative treatments and in particular the use of A. annua as a locally grown herbal treatment for malaria . For this purpose the dried herb is usually used in the form of an infusion prepared by adding boiling water to the herb, allowing to stand and then drinking the strained liquor. In China,
Qing Hao was documented more than 1,600 years ago for the treatment of ‘intermittent fevers’ by the famous physician Ge Hong (284-363 A.D.) in the Zhou hou bei ji fang which may be translated as ‘Emergency prescriptions kept up one’s sleeve’. Interestingly, in this text specific instructions are given: ‘Qing Hao, one bunch, take two sheng (2 × 0.2 L) of water for soaking it, wring it out, take the juice, ingest it in its entirety . Other methods in later references involve soaking the plant in urine rather than water and pounding the fresh herb to produce a juice In view of these interesting instructions, here we report experiments designed to simulate the methods described in the ancient Chinese texts and evaluate their potential to provide locally accessible malaria treatment
