title: [Advances in studies on absorption and metabolism of natural coumarins].
abstract: Natural coumarins have strong pharmacological activities. In this paper, the absorption and metabolism of natural coumarins were introduced by analyzing and summarizing the related literature in recent years. The research of absorption and metabolism will be propitious to further understand their pharmacological mechanism and provide basis for developing new drugs of coumarins.
