Guest guest Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 Hi All, Below are data summarised from many different WWW sources on three somewhat similar CHMs: Ezhu v Yujin v Jianghuang. I think that my source material contained some mistakes and that some of the TCM Actions & Clinical Uses are switched in error. Even the common names and Pharma names may have errors. I would appreciate it if CHM experts would edit the data below and feedback their corrections to me [OFF-LIST].
