S Popcorn [moxadoc] Tuesday, April 17, 2001 3:25 PM Anyone know this herb? Dear Group: One of my patients is taking a " phyto-pharmaceutical " product to promote sleep. It contains active ingredients of Stephania rotunda. The company claims it is an Oriental herb used to treat liver wind, and that it has been used as a tonic herb in Vietnam for centuries. The product literature given to me cites the Chinese patent Jin Bu Huan Anodyne Tablets as having the same active ingredients. They also mentioned there were 10 cases of hepatitis associated with this patent formula. They claim their product has no aristolochic acid in it. My questions are: Does anyone have information about Stephania rotunda? Sorry, I don't have pinyin. They claim to use the tubers of the plant. Does anyone have information about Jin Bu Huan Anodyne Tablets? In particular, I'm looking for indications, cautions, contraindications. I'm concerned about the long-term use of this product, as my patient claimed that it seemed to be fairly strong and work very quickly. And, he does not have any s/s of liver wind. Thanks in advance.
