This formula was developed by Dr. Wenwei Xie for use against the herpes simplex virus. Testing in the United States confirmed its effectiveness against the virus, but no useful drugs were found in any of the herbs and research was abandoned. The formula is used for cold sores, canker sores and herpes infections. Its Chinese indications are “weak chi (or vital energy) with external heat.” Hence, it is useful viral disorders in which the immune system is weak, but external heat (sores, fever, etc.) is present. Dr. Xie thought it might also benefit AIDS patients. Use 4 capsules two times a day for mild cases, 4 capsules three times daily for moderate cases and 4 capsules four times daily for severe cases.
