DIY medicine? (slrpnk.net)

So there's a lot of info on growing food and whatnot in solarpunk settings. But is there info on medicine? Like, is there anything that's both scientific but DIY on making your own medicine past just basic herbs? But with ingredients you can grow or process yourself?

I'm not very knowledgeable about medicine at all, so I might be missing obvious things.

The dubious fields of Naturopathy and Traditional Chinese Medicine might have some things to say about herbal medicines, but like I say, dubious. Take them with a grain of salt, might be useful in some kind of fallout society. I'd still stick with aspirin, paracetamol and antibiotics were they available.
