Angelica dahurica (Bai Zhi) is a dried root of Angelica dahurica, primarily processed via extraction or decoction. Its core chemical constituents include furanocoumarins such as imperatorin and isoimperatorin. The botanical source is distinct from synthetic chemicals; specific molecular formulas vary by constituent rather than the crude herb itself.
Long-term use requires monitoring for phototoxicity caused by furanocoumarins. Storage must be in cool, dry conditions away from direct sunlight to prevent degradation. Clinical application should adhere to dosage guidelines to avoid gastrointestinal irritation.
