药方

• 병음: yào fāng
• 한자 분석: 药 = 艹 (plant) + 约 (bind/constrain — herb that constrains disease); 方 = 一 + 丶 + 刀 + 丿 (originally a squared writing tablet — a written directive or formula)

뜻

처방(약방문), 특히 한약 처방전.

In TCM contexts, 药方 refers to a handwritten or printed prescription detailing herbs, quantities, and preparation methods. Figuratively used for any formula or recipe for solving a problem. Distinct from 处方 (modern clinical prescription) though overlapping in general usage.
