Pharmaceutical namePinelliae Rhizoma

Evidence grade: Insufficientauto-proposed · unreviewedSafety signal: Adverse-event literature existsMapping confidence: Strong correspondence

The three axes are assessed independently and are never combined into a single score.

KTKP records the origin species as Pinellia ternata (Thunb.) Breit.. It has not yet been cross-checked against the Korean Pharmacopoeia, so the identification confidence is not raised to an official code mapping. The same drug appears under 3 records as name variants. The same source species also yields 2 other separately registered drug(s) (Pinelliae Rhizoma Fermentata, Pinelliae Praeparatum cum Zingiberis), which must not be conflated. The name most used for this taxon in current literature is Pinellia ternata. Literature searches for this herb also cover Pinellia tuberifera — the same taxon appears under several names.

Evidence grade: Insufficientauto-proposed · unreviewed
  • 2 registered trial(s) exist but no published systematic review or RCT was found. Check whether the research is ongoing or simply unpublished.
  • The indication was derived automatically from the Condition field of 2 registered trial(s). It reflects what is currently being studied, not a traditional use, and a curator should confirm the label is apt.

    Safety

    auto-proposed · unreviewed

    • 5 adverse-event or toxicity record(s) were found. This only flags that literature exists — read the abstracts to decide between "caution" and "harm confirmed".
    • 1 interaction-related record(s) are retrievable. This flags that literature exists — it is not an interaction checker (§3.4).
    • The KTKP record states the following traditional contraindication: 오두류(烏頭類), 이당(飴糖), 해조(海藻), 양혈(羊血) 등과 같이 먹지 말 것. 일체(一切)의 혈증, 음허조해(陰虛燥咳), 진액손상(津液損傷)에 의한 구갈자(口渴者)는 복용해서 안됨.

    Adverse-event and toxicity literature

    This is not a finding of harm — it lists literature that is retrievable. Read the papers to decide.

    Interaction literature

    This lists literature that is retrievable — it is not a judgement that an interaction exists. Read the papers to decide.
