To accept folk remedies in view of oriental medicine and to use as one of social health materials, 1 have looked for the phase institution of folk remedies in the oriental medicine and their adopting method to the oriental medicine, on the basis of the present social-communicating situation, the degree of interest in folk remedies among people and oriental medicine doctors and the content of folk remedies in Dongyibogam(東醫寶鑑). The results are following; The researches of relative importance in the folk remedy's meaning of Dongyibogam show that the proper use can help disease cured, not by unconditional choice but by symptoms. The use of folk remedies are different from the prescription in the oriental medicine, as showing the type and ratio of folk remedies and prescriptions in Dongyibogam. When considering used materials, forms and time in the meaningful content of folk remedies in Dongyibogam, they established two categories. One is radical treatment on acute disease by short-term use. The other is slow treatment on chronic disease by long-term use. For wide application to people, they also had the prudent attitude to accept symptom-oriented treatment and tried to connect with syndrome which needed diagnosis as precisely as possible.
