Hi there,

I would like some input as to the top 10-20 most common herbal formulas that are being used in practice. I tend to stock as needed but would like to have a more well rounded "stocked" pharmacy. Any suggestions? (I use tea pills and/or granules) Thank you.

As time permits I'll try a more informative answer. I've been thinking about writing a page on this subject for quite some time. For now I think that with a couple exceptions all of the patents in our online herbal pharmacy meet the majority of conditions that we commonly see clinically and use herbs for.


We do not use a tremendous amount of herbs and primarily focus them on conditions that we feel they are important for the healing process. PMS, Anxiety, Insomnia, Menopause, Fertility (50-70% of cases - male and female), Hypertension, Skin Conditions, and Pain tend to be the conditions we most often use herbs with.
