Pharmacological Therapy in Pediatric Cardiology
摘要
Pharmacological knowledge has been recorded for thousands of years across the world. The earliest known documentation of medical substances is the prehistoric Sushruta Samhita and Indian Ayurvedic treatise from the sixth century BC. Additional examples of ancient pharmacological records are the various papyri from ancient Egypt that date back to the sixteenth century BC. The Ebers papyrus, for instance, lists the extensive pharmacopia of that civilization including plants and animal products.
