  • Abstract
    Persian medicine is one of the oldest traditional systems of medicine that its history in Persia (Iran) dates back to at least 7000 years ago [1]. This traditional medical system has a holistic approach to health care and treat and is based on humoral theory [2]. Persian medicine was the main paradigm of medicine in Europe, west of Asia and some parts of Africa for centuries. It was flourished during Islamic Golden Age (9th to 13th century). In that time, great Persian physicians and pharmacists like Akhawayni, Rhazes, Avicenna, Haly Abbas, etc wrote important medical texts such as Canon of Medicine and Liber Continent which were taught as main medical references in the west and the east at least until 17th century [3].
