Abstract：Presently,there are still many vacancies in the study of the unnamed prescription.Compared with famous classical formulas,many effective prescriptions without names have not been widely used in clinical practice.Through in-depth excavation of Sheng Ji Zong Lu,an official prescription book in the Song dynasty,it is found that there are nearly 1 300 unnamed prescriptions in this book.These prescriptions are mostly included in the form of"treating a disease or syndrome prescription"or"another prescription".They involve various dosage forms and are mostly composed of single herbs.They have the advantages of simple,convenient,inexpensive and effective,reflecting the traditional simple experience prescription thought.Some prescriptions have distinct characteristics of the Taoist.This is a valuable heritage left by Chinese medicine,which is worthy of further collation and clinical application.
