In the sixth year of Daoguang reign in Qing Dynasty, namely 1826, Kunming TCM adopted authentic Yunnan medicinal materials, initiated the formula of "South Yunnan Materia Medica", and inherited the concept of "exquisite workmanship without reduction, rough repair without refinement, diligent repair and diligent supplement", and refined some fine Chinese medicines under the name of "Tidetang". "Zheng's female elixir", "Zaizao pill" and "ointment prescription" were already "gorgeous products" at that time.
During the reign of Qing Xianfeng, Tongzhi and Guangxu, Kunming time-honored brands of traditional Chinese medicine successively introduced some special products, such as Qingfei Huatan Pill, Ruanshangqing Pill, Ganmao Shufeng Pill, Shugan Powder, Tianma (Qufeng) Pill and Jinhua (Xiaocuo) Pill.

1922 Sangju Yinqiao Powder, which was exclusively produced by Kunming TCM, came out in Kunming. This product was originally created by Yao, a famous old Chinese medicine practitioner in Yunnan, and is known as "Texacillin".
Before liberation, although the traditional Chinese medicine in Kunming was an old manual workshop, it strictly abided by the motto of "raw and cooked decoction pieces were processed according to law, and the fine materials were excellent and the impurities were insufficient". Exquisite workmanship and light weight. It is very hard for pharmaceutical workers in manual workshops to deal with grinding troughs, earthen stoves, iron pots, chopping boards and knives all day. Pharmacy is known as "riding a wooden horse with a broadsword, riding a wooden horse with hot wheels". At that time, there was a jingle called "Kunming Chinese medicine has a long history, and making medicine is the most bitter and tiring." They all eat grey rice and sleep in slag beds. "
