1723年(清雍正元年),雍正皇帝御批同仁堂供御药,由此开启了供御药的传奇经历。在整个清朝时期,享有连续188年供御药殊荣的民间药铺只有同仁堂一家。“传取同仁堂药品,表明清宫对同仁堂的信任和青睐,同时也证明同仁堂成药的品质优良,可以和御药房所制成药互为替代”。
In 1723,the 1st Qing Yongzheng reign, the emperor granted Tongrentang’s imperial supply of medications, when a legendary development process was initiated and lasted a successive duration of 188 years, then proudly as the only fold pharmacy supplier. The emperor’s grant to imperial supply of Tongrentang medications indicates the trust of Qing Imperial Palace and favor in Tongrentang. Meanwhile, this also proves the superb quality of Tongrentang prepared medicines, which were then replaceable with those by the imperial pharmacies.”

供御药的种类
Categories 

药材和咀片(饮片):这是同仁堂在所供的御药中传药次数最多、品种最广、数量最大的类别。以同治到宣统年间为例,仅49个年份中,有据可查的清宫传同仁堂药材和咀片次数共163次。其中:传药材124次,占76%;传咀片39次,占24%。
Medicinal Materials and prepared drug in pieces, were in most frequent demand, widest ranges, and largest quantities among all the Tongrentang supplies to the imperial court. Taking the supplies during the Tongzhi through Xuantong reigns as an example, there was a proven record of the Qing imperial court’s 163-time, which was only in a period of 49 years.

中成药(含仿单):目前故宫馆藏的同仁堂供中成药的仿单(药品说明书)有数千张,品种有上百种,主要有牛黄清心丸、熊油虎骨膏、加味逍遥丸、三黄宝蜡丸、内补养荣丸、佛手开骨散、养血安胎丸、七制香附丸、调经丸、百补济阴丸、千金止带丸、小儿香橘丸、女金丹等。“有一种仿单就意味着与之对应的一种药在宫中出现过”。目前仍保存在故宫博物院文物库房的同仁堂中成药有八宝太乙紫金锭、黎峒丸、十香返魂丹、神效活络丸(现名为“同仁大活络丸”)、再造丸、苏合丸等。”
Traditional Chinese Medicines: Several thousands of package inserts and hundreds of Traditional Chinese Medicines are collected at the Palace Museum, such as Niuhuang Qingxin Pill (cow-bezoar sedative bolus), Jiawei Xiaoyao Pill (flavored rambling pill), Yangxue Antai Pill (pill for nourishing the fetus), Tiaojing Pill (pill for menstrual regulation), Qianjin Zhidai Pill (pill for arresting leucorrhea), Xiaoer Xiangju Pill (aiding digestion pill for kids), Nv Jin Pill (pill for warming the uterus) and many others. The package inserts imply that some corresponding herbal medicine was ever consumed in the Imperial Palace. A number of Tongrentang Chinese Medicines are still housed at the Palace Museum cultural relic hall, including Babao Taiyi Zijinding, Lidong Pill, Shixiang Fanhun Pill, Shenxiao Huoluo Pill(presently renamed Tongren Da Huoluo Pill), Zaizao Pill and Suhe Pill,and so on.

《同仁堂传统配本》被两次传抄进入宫中,用于御药房配制中成药:光绪十一年(1885年)六月初四日,《同仁堂传统配本》一册抄存于清宫太医院(现存于故宫博物院),全书共103个配方,首列碧云散、结尾是益寿比天膏;光绪十七年(1898年)八月初八日,清宫又命同仁堂抄录《同仁堂传统配本》、《同仁堂药目》给御药房(现存于故宫博物院),其中有中成药配方425种,分为16门类,首列风痰门,牛黄清心丸列首位。
The manuscript of TRT Traditional Medicine Matching was re-copied into the Qing Imperial Palace for imperial pharmacy preparation of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the 4th day of the 6th lunar month, 1885 (the 11th Guangxu reign), then housed at the Palace Imperial Hospital and presently at the Palace Museum. The book includes a total of 103 formulas. In the 8th day of the 8th lunar month ,1891 (the 17th Guangxu reign), the Qing Imperial Palace ordered Tongrentang to copy the updated TRT Traditional Medicine Matching and TRT Materia Medica (now housed at the Palace Museum) for the imperial pharmacy preparations, which comprise 425 formulas of Tongrentang Traditional Chinese Medicines. The first category is anemogenous phlegm, while the first recommended Chinese Medicine is Niuhuang Qinxin Pill in that category.

此后,清宫御药房多次运用同仁堂配方制作成药,如御药房档案《上用丸散膏丹配方薄》记载:“光绪十三年九月十二日,连英传:用同仁堂配方合梅苏丸;光绪十七年三月二十二日,按同仁堂配方合清肺抑火化痰丸四分之一料,如绿豆粒大;光绪二十二年六月初七日,用同仁堂配方合千金保胎膏一料;光绪二十六年二月十一日,福祥传:用同仁堂配方合加味保和丸半料;光绪二十六年二月十一日,福祥传:用同仁堂配方合香砂养胃半料”。
After that, the Qing imperial pharmacy applied Tongrentang formulas to prepare their medicines for several times.

The seasonal medication applies to the tropism of taste of Traditional Chinese Medicine for recuperation of the human body to prevent disease by using mild and effective Medicinal Materials and following the Five Elements theory.

(3)对症用药治未病
Indication-based Preventive Medication for Treating Disease Before Its Onset

乾隆四十一年至六十四年,乾隆皇帝因渐至暮年,先后天俱亏,阴阳气血虚损叠至,故频用八珍糕、生脉饮(煎剂),其中乾隆六十二年至六十四年,共进生脉饮359次。
In 1778--1801, the 41st through 64th Qing Qianlong reign, the Qing emperor Qianlong, in the twilight of his life, suffered from post-natural weakness, in addition to deficiencies of Yin(feminine and negative), Yang(masculine and positive), Qi(Vital energy) and Blood, therefore frequently took eight-therapy cakes and Shengmaiyin, of which, during 1799--1801, 359 were Tongrentang consumed by him.

2、随时传药治已病

清宫成员发生疾病,特别是皇帝、太后等生病,同仁堂要“全天候”服务。
Upon their sickness, the Qing imperial palace officials and their family, especially the emperor and the empress dowager, demanded Tongrentang’s provision of around-the-clock medical services.

再造丸收载于1764年《同仁堂传统配本》的“风痰门”。经考证,光绪十一年(1885年),御医李德昌为慈禧太后拟再造丸,是根据《同仁堂传统配本》结合慈禧太后本人体质加1味白芍而成。 同仁堂再造丸仿单现存于故宫,仿单内容:“此药专治风湿诸痹、口眼歪斜、半身不遂、行步艰难、筋骨拘挛、手足疼痛。宣畅气血,通利经络。大者一丸、小者酌用。病在左部,用四物汤为引,当归、生地、白芍、川芎各一钱;病在右部,用四君子汤为引,白术一钱、茯苓一钱、人参一钱、甘草五分,如无人参用黄芪代;其余用姜汤、黄酒酌用;孕妇忌服;五种痫症,用金器煎汤送下。同仁堂乐家老铺开设在北京正阳门外大栅栏中间路南,有冲天招牌便是”。
The Zaizao Pill is compiled into the Anemogenous Phlegm category of TRT Traditional Medicine Matching Tongrentang in the 11rd Guangxu reign (1885), through investigations, it is evidenced that, the imperial physician Li Dechang proposed the Zaizao Pill to Empress Dowager Cixi with reference to TRT Traditional Medicine Matching, and just added one more herbal medicine -Radix Paeoniae Alba based on Cixi’s actual physical conditions. The Tongrentang imitated Zaizao Pill recipe from Tongrentang is now enshrined at the Palace Museum,

3、随王伴驾保平安
Ensuring the emperor’s health during his travels

同仁堂供的御药经常为皇上及皇室成员的出行保驾护航。
During the travel of the emperor and other imperial family members, Tongrentang medicines specially formulated for use by the ancient China's emperor were often brought with them.

乾隆四十八年(1783年)乾隆帝“木兰秋狝”(秋猎),备“随围药味咀片丸散”的差事由同仁堂承担,并“限八月三十一日送到”。此次所办药材有茯苓、苏叶、陈皮、半夏等27种;六味地黄丸、健步虎潜丸、补中益气丸、藿香正气丸、宣化丸、参苏理肺丸、五福化毒丹等成药34种;牛黄、冰片、麝香、朱砂、雄黄、犀角面、白芨面等珍贵细料药物及药面7种。

There were 27 kinds of medicinal materials, 34 patent medicines  And 7 kinds of precious and fine materials and powders.

4、赏赐大臣显皇恩
Rewarding the Minister to show emperor's kindness

皇帝不仅注重自身的养生,也对为其立下功劳的大臣或封疆大吏、近臣宠臣、皇亲国戚、前线官兵等十分关爱。这种关爱也在其赏赐药品上见到一斑。
The emperor not only paid attention to his own health, but also cared for the ministers or regional premiers who had made contributions, courtiers and preferred ministers, imperial relatives, and the frontline officers and soldiers.

平安丸为治日常心胃疼痛的方剂,胸膈胀满,呕吐嘈杂,纳呆痞塞者均宜,其可理肝脾,顺升降,不损元气,故不仅皇室人员使用,雍正帝也大量赏赐臣下。雍正六年十二月初八日(1728年),雍正帝亲批:赏总督、御史、巡抚、将军、提督、总兵、都统等各级将领平安丸,“共用平安丸捌万伍千柒佰丸”。
Pingan Pill is a prescription for treating pains in the heart and stomach. This prescription is suitable for those who feel fullness in chest, vomit, have sour regurgitation, and feel anorexia, distention and stagnation. It can regulate the liver and spleen, and coordinate the up and down movement without damaging the promordial Qi(Vital energy). Therefore, it was used not only by imperial families, but also by ministers as rewards given by Emperor Yongzheng.

5、保障会试聚人才
Ensuring that examinations would gather talents

清朝每年春秋二次(同治五年以前每年四次)举办太医院科会考试,由堂官主考,凡吏目、医士、恩粮生、肄业生、医生,按考试结果决定是否能在太医院供职。此时同仁堂承担“科会试场差”,参考人员身体不适所用中药由同仁堂供应。
In the Qing Dynasty, imperial medical examinations were held two times, separately in spring and autumn , by the Imperial Hospital. The examinations were monitored by Court officials and the examination results of the participants, including minor officials, medical assistants, food doctors, interns, physicians, were used to determine whether they could work in the Imperial Hospital or not. At this time, Tongrentang was responsible for the "examination room errands", and supplied Chinese medicines to these who had discomfort during the test.

在清朝每三年的科举会试中,同仁堂根据举人的身体情况免费备药,写上举人的名字送到驻地。
In imperial medical examinations that took place every 3 years in Qing Dynasty, Tongrentang prepared medicines according to the physical conditions of the successful candidates of the examinations with their name on the prescriptions and then delivered these prescriptions to where they lived.

上述同仁堂提供的药品保障服务,既为皇家赢得了士子之心,也使同仁堂的产品名扬四海。
These drug-supporting services provided by Tongrentang had not only won the hearts of the scholars for the imperial family, but also made the products of Tongrentang well-known in the world.

6、防控疫情稳民心
Prevention and Control of the Epidemic to Stabilize the Public Confidence

清太医张仲元《太医院志》载:“奉旨于瘟疫时于京城设厂派员诊治施药……奏派差务:国初以来,每直京师多疫,由步军统领奏请恩施医药惠济满汉军民人等,得旨后由本院开单奏派……奉旨以为常例”。
Dr. Zhang Zhongyuan, a court physician of the Qing Dynasty, said in the Annals of Imperial Academy of Medicine: “At the order of the emperor, medical stations would be established and medical staff be dispatched to distribute medicines in the capital city whenever there was an epidemic outburst...the imperial decree stated: ever since the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, whenever an epidemic erupted in the capital city, the infantry commander would petition for an imperial decree to distribute medicines to soldiers and civilians from both Manchu and Han community. Once the Emperor issued an imperial decree, the Imperial Academy of Medicine would make a “list of medicines” and start the distribution accordingly...it was mandatory to follow the imperial decree.”
