Abstract
Compound Danshen Dripping Pill (CDDP) is the traditional Chinese medicine that has been widely used in China for the treatment of diseases such as coronary heart disease, stenocardia, and myocardial ischemia. The application of the pills was submitted to the USA Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1997. It was also the first TCM to enter phase III clinical trials by the FDA.
