Glyph origin
One of the 324 simplified characters introduced by the Republic of China (Kuomintang government) in 1935 as a simplified form of 藥／药 but was later retracted in 1936. Prior to that 葯 and 藥／药 were two homonyms that were not related with one another.
In the 1956 Chinese Character Simplification Scheme by the People's Republic of China, 葯 was once again listed as a simplified form of 藥／药 which was succeeded by 药 based on the radical simplification of 糹／纟 (sīzìpáng) to 纟 (sīzìpáng).
Definitions
| For pronunciation and definitions of 葯 – see 藥 (“medicine; drug; pharmaceutical; substance used for a particular purpose; etc.”). (This character is the former (1935–1936) ROC simplified, former (1964–1986) first-round simplified, former (1969–1976) Singaporean simplified, and variant form of 藥). |
