Paeoniae Radix Alba (PRA) is a clinically commonly used drug for tonifying blood and regulating meridians, which was listed as one of the highest grade herb in Shengnong's Classic of Materia Medica. The main chemical constituents of PRA are monoterpenes, triterpenes and flavonoids, and its processing methods are cleansing, cutting, adding auxiliary materials, etc. At present, the mainstream processing methods are stir-frying or stir-frying with wine. Modern studies have shown that PRA has the effects of protecting cardiovascular, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant. In this paper, we consulted with the ancient Chinese materia medica and ancient Chinese medical book, analyzed the local traditional Chinese medicine slices processing norms and modern pharmacopoeia. Meanwhile, we reviewed the history of PRA in function and processing, and discussed the modern processing technology, chemical composition and pharmacological research in some extent. We hope it can be helpful for some related research of PRA.
