The practice of East Asian herbal medicine is based on personalised adaptations of classic formulas that match the dynamics of each patient.
Created for practitioners, by practitioners, Dispensing Platform revolves around a database of over 80 core base formulas in the TEAM menu. Each formula is explained according to its Actions, Indications and Structure.
Plus, there is a Discussion covering modern and historical interpretations and uses, recommended Adaptations for the formula, and the relevant Cautions and Contraindications.
The DP software provides access to the majority of base formulas that an experienced herbalist will typically refer to as they practice.
These formulas can be added to a side menu on the same page, where adjustments can be made while referring to the original formula (or the others in its category).
This greatly aids script writing as having access to textbook information reconnects herbalists to the reasoning behind the original formulas. It both acts as a natural ‘refresher’ and increases confidence as they work.
Once written, a script can be linked to a patient from Client Details, instructions added, and the adapted script is sent to the Cart. Once in the Cart, the formula and instructions can be altered further before placing the order, as fine-tuning is often desired.
