Hi eminem,
Wikipedia gives the following information about the first medical text book written.

In 220 AD- Zhang Zhongjing published Shang Han Lun (On Cold Disease Damage), the oldest complete medical textbook in the world, focusing on diagnosis, treatment and prognosis.

Muhammad ibn Zakarīya Rāzi (Rhazes) wrote the Comprehensive Book of Medicine in the 9th century. He also wrote the earliest known book on pediatric care. Representing Arabic medicine at its best, Rhazes’ accomplishments of more than a thousand years ago still command admiration.
