Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigatethe current trends in research on pharmacopuncture inKorea since 2007. Methods: A literature review was performed by usingthe search engines ‘Science and Technology SocietyVillage’, ‘Korean Studies Information Service System’,‘National Discovery for Science Leaders’, and ‘OrientalMedicine Advanced Searching Integrated System’ inKorea from January 2007 to December 2013. Searchedkey words were ‘pharmacopuncture’, ‘herbal acupuncture’,‘aqua-acupuncture’, and ‘bee venom’. Finally, weselected 457 papers, including Korean experimentalstudies and clinical studies. Selected papers were classifiedaccording to year of publication, type of pharmacopuncture,disease & topic, research type and the publishingjournal. Results: One hundred fifty pharmacopunctures werestudied in 457 papers. Single compound pharmacopuncturewas the most studied pharmacopuncture inexperimental studies while animal-based pharmacopuncturewas the most studied pharmacopuncture inclinical studies. Bee venom placed first among the variouspharmacopunctures, followed by placenta, sweetbee venom, mountain-ginseng, and anti-inflammatorypharmacopunctures. Experimental research on pharmacopuncturehas fallen since 2007 when 55 paperswere published. However, clinical research has been increasing steadily. In clinical studies, case reports werenumerous than randomized clinical trials (RCTs). Musculoskeletaldiseases were the most frequently-treateddiseases in studies on pharmacopuncture; among themusculoskeletal diseases, rheumatoid arthritis was themost frequently-treated disease in experimental studiesand low back pain was the most frequently-treatedcondition in clinical studies. Since 2007, 45 differentjournals have published studies on pharmacopuncture,with the Journal of the Korean Acupuncture andMoxibustion Medicine Society having the largest numberof papers on pharmacopuncture and the Journal ofPharmacopuncture the second largest number. Conclusion: The trends in research on pharmacopuncturepublished in studies from 2007 to 2013 weresimilar to those in studies published before 2006. Many studies on pharmacopuncture focused on beevenom and musculoskeletal diseases. Additional studieson diverse types of and indications for pharmacopunctureare needed.
