This review aimed to provide insight into the following aspects. First, it summarized the existing LLMs in the General Domain, Modern Medicine, and TCM from the perspective of their model structures, number of parameters and domain-specific training data. We highlighted the limitations of existing LLMs in integrative medicine tasks through benchmark experiments and the unique applications of LLMs in Integrative Medicine. We discussed the challenges during the development and proposed possible solutions to mitigate them.
