Thong Chai Institute of Medical Research (TCIMR) has been actively promoting the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) since its establishment in 2003. Its first TCM patent medicine, “Bu Shen Yi Jing” (BSYJ) pill was born out of this mission.
The BSYJ project was initiated by a team of experienced physicians who noticed that young and middle-aged patients often suffer from kidney deficiency symptoms such as fatigue, lethargy and lower back pain due to the high demands of modern lifestyles, long hours of sitting, and family responsibilities, and the team set out to help this demographic improve their general health.
In 2003, the project was led by Dr(TCM) Loh Kim Gek and Physician Loh Kin Yee, and approved by the Thong Chai Academic Committee, securing SGD10,000 in research funding. Additionally, MK Marine Pte Ltd and Neo Garden Catering Pte Ltd generously contributed funds of SGD30,000 and SGD21,000 respectively, laying a solid foundation for the research and production of BSYJ.
In 2004, the research institute assisted the project team in the formal revision of the project proposal and began seeking manufacturers for sample production. Acute toxicity tests were conducted at the Xiyuan Hospital of the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences in Beijing, China. The tests showed zero toxicity nor side effects in mice even at almost 900x the prescribed dosage, providing strong evidence for the drug’s safety.
After 12 years of rigorous clinical research, the institute applied to the Singapore Health Sciences Authority for a Chinese Proprietary Medicine listing, which was granted in 2015. This marked the first research innovation in Singapore Thong Chai Medical Instituition’s century-long history. The Institution appointed Yi Si Yuan Private Limited as the sole production and marketing agent for BSYJ, and the product quickly gained recognition and popularity in Singapore and Malaysia.
In 2019, STCMI entered into a collaboration with KKH (KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital) to initiate a clinical research study on the effects of “Bu Shen Yi Jing Wan” in improving semen quality in male patients with kidney deficiency and liver stagnation, further advancing research in this field.
The research team sincerely appreciates the leadership of Singapore Thong Chai Medical Institution, the support from society, and the guidance from predecessors in the Chinese medicine community, all of which have contributed to the successful completion of the “Bu Shen Yi Jing Wan” project. We hope this innovative herbal medication will be able to contribute to the improvement of public health.
