Chuanxiong belongs to the list of 50 fundamental herbs in the traditional herbal medicine of China. At the same time, it looks like there are some inconsistencies as for the name of the plant in the Western science. The latter names this herb Ligusticum Chuanxiong Hort, Szechuan lovage or simply Lovage, Cnidium, Ligusticum wallichii and Levisticum officinale. It is not clear whether it is correct to use all these names referring to the same plant.
The rhizome of Ligusticum chuanxiong Hort ,a perennial herbal plant of the Umbelliferae / Apiaceae family.Sichuan lovage is mainly produced in Sichuan province of China, other provinces like Jiangxi, Hubei and Xhaanxi also provide part of the supply. Nowadays, the herb is sourced from cultivation. Sichuan lovage rhizome is pungent in flavor, warm in nature, and mainly manifests its therapeutic actions in the liver, gallbladder and pericardium meridians.
