U+846F "葯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character composed of the grass radical atop a phonetic component, and it traditionally refers to a type of medicinal herb or plant, often specifically denoting "medicine" or "drug" in the context of traditional Chinese medicine, where it appears in classical texts as a variant or older form of the more common character 藥 (yào). In modern usage, it is less frequently employed as a standalone term but remains recognizable in historical literature and in the compound term 山葯 (shān yào), meaning Chinese yam, a starchy tuber used in both culinary and medicinal applications.
