徐之才，金紫光禄大夫、开府仪同三司、尚书令、西阳郡王，字士茂，是高平金乡人。他自幼聪慧敏捷，应对应答如响。他擅长医术，机智善辩。武明皇太后身体不适，徐之才进献药物，太后随即痊愈。肃宗召见他并与他同坐，让皇太子向他行礼，赏赐丝帛一千匹、锦缎四百匹、车马和衣服，以及肥沃的田园千亩。（出自张太素《齐书》）
张远游是齐地人，以医药道术而闻名。不久有诏书征召他，让他与术士一同炼制九转金丹。丹药炼成后，显祖将其放入玉匣中，说：“贪婪的人间享乐，不能飞上天去，等我临死时方可服用。”（同上）
梁朝的陶弘景，号贞白先生，字通明，是丹阳人。他的母亲郝氏梦见两个天人手执香炉来到她所在之处，随后便有了身孕。他在孝建三年夏至日出生。他自幼机警聪慧，博学通晓经书，有志于养生之道，生性喜爱医方，专注于救世济人，利益众生。因此他编撰了《神农本草经》三卷。（出自《梁书》及艺文杂类）
徐之范，仪同大将军、太常卿、恒山太守，嗣西阳王，是北齐徐之才的弟弟。他也以医术闻名，官至太常卿，继承兄长的爵位成为西阳王。北齐灭亡后入周朝，被授予仪同大将军。（出自《后周书》）
徐敏，齐太常卿徐之范的儿子，精通医术，博览群书，多才多艺。在开皇年间被赠予朝散大夫的称号。（出自《隋书》）
甄权，许州扶沟人。他曾经因为母亲生病，与弟弟甄立言专门研习医方，于是探究并掌握了其中的奥妙。
甄立言，是甄权的弟弟。他们都因为母亲生病而专心习医，最终穷尽了医理的精妙。武德年间，他多次升迁至太常丞。御史大夫杜淹患有风毒，发作时身体肿胀。太宗皇帝命令甄立言治疗。不久后甄立言上奏说：“再过二十一天的午时，杜淹将会死亡。”结果果然像他说的那样。
宋侠，不知道是哪个郡的人。他性格明智敏捷，有学问，对于经方和本草尤为推崇，最终凭借医术而闻名。
许胤宗，常州义兴人。起初在陈朝任职，担任新蔡王外兵参军。当时柳太后患中风不能说话，脉象日益沉伏且牙关紧闭。许胤宗说：“口里不能下药，应当用汤药的蒸汽熏蒸，使药气进入腠理，大约一个时辰就可以痊愈。”于是他用黄芪、防风煎煮成汤剂数十斛，放置在床下，蒸汽如烟雾般弥漫。按照这个方法，太后果然能够说话了。因此他被破格提拔为义兴太守。（均出自《唐史》）
Xu Zhicai, holding the titles of Jinzi Guanglu Dafu (Golden Light and Purple Dew High Official), Kaifu Yitong Sansi (Opening the Office and Equal to the Three Excellencies), Shangshu Ling (Director of the Department of State Affairs), and Prince of Xiyang, courtesy name Shimao, was a native of Jinxiang, Gaoping. He was intelligent and quick-witted from childhood, responding to inquiries with speed and accuracy. He was skilled in medicine and possessed wit and eloquence. When Empress Dowager Wu Ming was unwell, Xu Zhicai administered medicine, and she recovered immediately. Emperor Suzong summoned him to sit beside him and ordered the Crown Prince to pay respects to him. He was rewarded with one thousand bolts of silk, four hundred bolts of brocade, carriages, horses, clothes, and a thousand mu of fertile fields and gardens (from Zhang Taisu's *Book of Qi*).
Zhang Yuanyou was a person from the Qi region, known for his medical skills and Daoist arts. Soon after, an imperial edict conscripted him to refine the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir together with alchemists. Once the elixir was completed, Emperor Xianzhu placed it in a jade casket, saying, "Greedy people enjoy worldly pleasures but cannot fly to heaven; you may take it only when I am on my deathbed" (ibid.).
Tao Hongjing of the Liang Dynasty, styled Zhenbai Xiansheng (Master of Purity and White), courtesy name Tongming, was a native of Danyang. His mother, Lady Hao, dreamed of two celestial beings carrying incense burners coming to her location, after which she became pregnant. Tao Hongjing was born on the Summer Solstice of the Xiaojian Year 3. He was alert and intelligent from childhood, widely learned and proficient in the classics. He aspired to health preservation and had a natural inclination towards medical prescriptions, focusing on saving people and benefiting all living beings. Consequently, he compiled three volumes of the *Shennong Bencao Jing* (Divine Farmer's Materia Medica) (from *Book of Liang* and miscellaneous literary works).
Xu Zhifan, holding the titles of Yitong Da Jiangjun (General Equal to the Three Excellencies), Taichang Qing (Minister of Ceremonies), and Hengshan Taishou (Prefect of Hengshan), and inheriting the title of Prince of Xiyang, was the younger brother of Xu Zhicai of Northern Qi. He was also renowned for his medical skills, rising to the position of Taichang Qing and inheriting his brother's title as Prince of Xiyang. After the fall of Northern Qi, he entered the Zhou dynasty and was appointed Yitong Da Jiangjun (from *Book of Later Zhou*).
Xu Min, son of Xu Zhifan, Minister of Ceremonies of Qi, was proficient in medicine, well-read, and versatile. During the Kaihuang era, he was posthumously granted the title of Chaosan Dafu (Court Dispenser Grand Master) (from *Book of Sui*).
Zhen Quan was a native of Fugou, Xuzhou. Because of his mother's illness, he and his younger brother Zhen Liyan specialized in studying medical prescriptions, thereby mastering their subtleties.
Zhen Liyan was the younger brother of Zhen Quan. Both devoted themselves to medicine due to their mother's illnesses, eventually exhausting the profound mysteries of medical science. During the Wude era, he was repeatedly promoted to Taichang Cheng (Assistant Minister of Ceremonies). Du Yan, Censor-in-Chief, suffered from wind-toxin causing swelling. Emperor Taizong ordered Zhen Liyan to treat him. Zhen Liyan subsequently reported, "In twenty-one days at noon, he will die." The outcome proved exactly as he predicted.
Song Xia was of unknown origin. He was intelligent, agile, and scholarly, particularly valuing classical prescriptions and materia medica. He ultimately gained fame through his medical expertise.
Xu Yinzong was a native of Yixing, Changzhou. Initially serving in the Chen dynasty as Waibing Canjun (Military Staff Officer for Prince Xincai), he treated Empress Dowager Liu, who suffered from stroke-induced aphasia. Her pulse was increasingly deep and her jaw was clenched. Xu Yinzong stated, "Since oral medication is impossible, decoction fumes should be used to vaporize the medicine, allowing its qi to penetrate the couli (skin pores and interstices). Recovery can be expected within about one hour." He then prepared several hu (ancient unit of volume) of Huangqi Fangfeng Tang (Astragalus and Saposhnikovia Decoction) and placed it under the bed. The steam rose like smoke. Following this method, the Empress regained her ability to speak. Consequently, he was exceptionally promoted to Prefect of Yixing (all from *History of Tang*).
