Chinese herbal therapy is an important part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It has been used for centuries in China, where herbs are considered fundamental therapy for many acute and chronic conditions. Many studies indicated TCM exerted an overall regulatory effect via multi-component and multi-target network. Active components from Traditional Chinese Medicine possess many medicinal properties such as antioxidant, anti-cancer, and anti-bacterial effects, which makes it an important source of new drugs. Nearly 200 modern medicines have been developed either directly or indirectly from the plants used as medicines in China. For example, artemisinin, used in multidrug resistant malaria, was first isolated from the Chinese herb Artemisia annua L. Today, scientists continue to identify compounds in Chinese herbal remedies that may be useful in the development of new therapeutic agents applicable in Western medicine.

Diarrhea is a disease symptom, and the pathophysiologic basis of diarrhea is a disturbance in intestinal water and electrolyte balance, which may be due to increased secretion of osmotically active electrolytes (secretory diarrhea) or increased intake of osmotically active substances (osmotic diarrhea). Food poisoning, pathogenic bacterial infections, and intestinal-related diseases can all contribute to the development of diarrhea. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) considers diarrhea to be a symptom of an imbalance in the body's systems, particularly related to the functions of the spleen and stomach. Spleen qi deficiency, dampness-heat, liver and spleen disharmony are closely related to diarrhea. Many types of Chinese herbs regulate the function of diarrhea, such as: Dysosmae Verspiellis Rhixoma Et Radix, Ginkgo Semen, Forsythiae Fructus, and Campsis Flos.
