Artemisiae-2 (Zhang) - worth the money?

Personally I just used a tincture by herb pharm. It is like $10-$15 bottle and it worked fine for me. I was also on antibiotics and other herbs and their effects are supposed to compound. It is possible that you could throw another antimalarial herb in there as well. There are definitely some supplements that I think it IS worth getting the expensive stuff. I had really good success with some of those though I was skeptical at first.

Hopefully someone else will chime in here that has actually used that product. I try to tell people to start with the more affordable options and work their way up. Not to mention, for many of the more concentrated products- it is too strong for some and they can't use it at all. At least with the lower concentrated substances you can work your way up.

I started on Zhang's regular strength and progressed to the Artemisiae 2 over time. It basically stopped working and I've learned since that Dr Schaller doesn't recommend Artemisia as a single agent due to resistance. I feel like that is what happened to me. I would use it together with cryptolepis but start slow and gradually increase. It's amazing what difference once drop can make. It's put me down for an entire day.
