This article reviewed the recent research on the distribution of Tiannanxing (Arisaematis Rhizoma) resources, chemical composition, pharmacological effects and clinical applications at home and abroad, and examined the clinical dosage of Tiannanxing (Arisaematis Rhizoma) through literature research. It also prospected the research direction and application prospect of Tiannanxing (Arisaematis Rhizoma), with the aim of providing reference for further research.
