A Clinician's Guide to Using Granule Extracts

By Eric Brand

0 - Default Title
Description
Over the past 40 years, different approaches to dosage and formulation have arisen in Taiwan, Japan, and mainland China. However, in more recent years, granules have become the most popular delivery form for Chinese herbal medicine in the West. It can be said that the convenience, portability, and efficacy of granules has revolutionized professional herbal medicine in the West. While granule efficacy can be maximized by observing modern clinical trends in Asia, resources that shed light on this subject are few and far between. Many practitioners have not been exposed to a systematic discussion of critical issues such as dosage and clinical strategies. In an effort to bridge this knowledge gap, the author traveled to factories, hospitals, and clinics throughout Asia to observe clinical trends and manufacturing processes. The knowledge he has gleaned offers clinicians and professionals useful insights in these regards. This very practical handbook covers effective dosing strategies, methods of formula combining, common clinical approaches seen in mainland China and Taiwan, concentration ratios and their effect on dosage, various manufacturing methods and their impact on patient care, and how to set up an efficient pharmacy with attention to good compounding practices.
