What are the main types of Chinese medicine patents? What are the principles for granting patents?

Chinese medicine patents can only be declared as invention patents.

The principle of granting is:

1, novelty, that is, published materials in the market (including magazines and patent documents, etc.). ), there is no exactly the same composition and content as your patent application.

2, creativity, that is, according to the published information in the market, combined with common sense in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, you can't directly get the composition and content of your patent application. In other words, your Chinese medicine formula is not obvious.

There should be enough experimental data in the manual to prove your efficacy.

Meet the above three points, the patent can be authorized.

Creative judgment is more difficult here. Authorization and non-authorization are mostly determined by creativity, and the other two are relatively easy.
