malaria proph tx

[Guest guest]

I have heard recently that " qing hao su " can be an effective preventative

treatment for malaria.

 

Since there is mixed info on the web I ask:

 

 

 

1) Is Qing Hao Su just an extract of Qing Hao ? If so any ideas of ratio?

and could someone just boil up some qing hao (if effective see question #3)

 

2) Can you get it anywhere?

 

3) Does anyone know of research that proves this to be an effective

prophylactic treatment, dosage?

 

 

 

Thanks,

Qing Hao Su is artemisinin. When a formula has the word " su " in it, it is

typically a single compound isolated from the herb. For example, Huang Lian

Su is berberine.

Qing Hao Su or artemisinin is also used against cancer (specifically

leukemia and colon cancer).

Jason,

 

My understanding is that qing hao " su " is the isolated

arteminisin...thus a pharmaceutical drug. However, this has been one

of the traditional uses for the herb so there you have it. Given what

we know about bio-chemical synergism in herb formulas, I would guess

that a properly constructed herb formula might be more effective than

the Rx.

I don¹t know if this is helpful, but I emailed Jim Duke about this very

topic. He didn¹t know the most effective dosage, but he did forward this:

 

Here's stuff I blindly lifted from the literature

 

DOSAGES (SWEET WORMWOOD): General dosages; 4.5 - 9 g pl in decoction (FAY);

For malaria, 3 g pl juice/day (FAY); 30 g plant (dry lf) or decoction (FAY)

10-20 g/day dry herb or 20-40 ml fluid extract (1:2) (for all KEB¹s Chinese

posologies, these ratios apply) (KEB); higher doses suggested for malaria

and lupus (KEB); 50 mg/kg artemisinin for 3 days (KEB); 300 mg/day

artemisinin for 50 days for SLE or 30-54 g herb/day.for malaria 500-1,000 mg

artemisinin (on first day, 500 mg day for 4 more days (LYM); for Babesia,

300 mg/day artemisinin. A quart infusion of 9 g flowering tops contains 95

mg artemisinin (LYM), a gin tincture of the same amount or crushed herb

should contain the same amount of artemisinin, a bit tastier and better

extracted with lemon juice and tonic water.
