Beijing Tongrentang is a famous time-honored brand in traditional Chinese medicine. It was founded in 1669 and has a history of 337 years. Tongrentang began to undertake official medicine from 1723 to 1911. For 188 years, Tongrentang followed the Royal Standard for selecting medicinal materials, strictly abided by the imperial secret prescriptions and pharmaceutical methods, and formed a set of strict quality supervision system. Tongrentang's organic integration and influence with qinggongtai hospital and imperial pharmacy formed the special style and traditional knowledge of Tongrentang's traditional Chinese medicine.

Tongrentang's traditional Chinese medicine culture is mainly embodied in the values of "cultivating benevolence, helping the world and keeping in good health", the quality concept of "no labor saving, no material resources reducing" and the business philosophy of "faithfulness, valuing human harmony", the professional ethics of "treating the old and the young alike", the brand and unique mark of Tongrentang, and the preparation of Leshi generation zuzhuan Wan powder Formula and general catalogue of Tongrentang Qianxiu Zhumen Yingzheng pill San Gao Dan, Tongrentang traditional Chinese medicine processing technology, Tongrentang's pharmaceutical characteristics, namely the integration of traditional Chinese medicine and palace pharmacy, are summarized as "unique prescription, excellent material selection, exquisite technology and remarkable curative effect".

Tongrentang is making unremitting efforts to protect this excellent traditional culture, and needs to be respected and protected by the whole society.
