Chao Phraya Abhaibhubejhr Hospital in Prachin Buri, one of the country s leading herbal medicine producers, is asking the public to avoid hoarding fah talai jone, also known as green chiretta, and gouging its price amid growing demand for the herb to help treat Covid-19.
Demand for the herb along with others which are deemed beneficial, including galangal and Indian gooseberry has risen sharply after it was found to contain high levels of andrographolides, which can aid recovery from Covid-19.
In a Facebook post on Monday, the hospital said its supplies of green chiretta aren t enough to meet the increasing demand. As such, it can only give out the herb to 200 people every morning at 8am, with each ticket holder limited to 3 bottles of the tonic.
