Central nervous system (CNS) disorders are difficult and complicated and cause high costs for clinical therapy and basic research due to unknown and puzzling mechanisms. The treatment of CNS disorders needs systematic drugs that can pass through the brain barrier to target specific receptors. Until now, such drugs have severe side effects. Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) has recently become highly recognized as therapeutic medicine and recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO). Clinical trials, drug development, and basic research of CAM are increased dramatically because of gradual development and knowledge. The current special issue is diversified with several novel and crucial articles concerning CAM.
