GREEN BAY, WI, October 21, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Donald Brown, a naturopathic physician and one of the leading US authorities on evidence-based herbal medicine, will be a keynote speaker at the Arizona Naturopathic Medical Association convention on Saturday, November 14th in Tempe, Arizona. His presentation will feature EPs 7630, a proprietary extract of the root of Pelargonium sidoides, and he will discuss the safety and efficacy data that supports its use in the treatment of acute upper respiratory infections in both adults and children. Particular focus will be given to the safety of the product in children as young as 2 years of age and its use as an alternative to OTC cough and cold products.
Currently Vice President, Medical and Educational Affairs for Schwabe North America, Inc. and its subsidiaries Integrative Therapeutics , Nature's Way , and Enzymatic Therapy , Dr. Brown is an expert and published author on the safety and efficacy of herbal medicines and nutritional supplements.
Extensive clinical research and pharmacovigilance have found EPs 7630 to safely and effectively shorten the duration and severity of the common cold, acute bronchitis, acute non-strep tonsillopharyngitis, and acute sinusitis. The active ingredient is contained in ViraClear EPs 7630 and sold by Integrative Therapeutics to health care professionals in the U.S.
"Many conventional remedies for acute upper respiratory tract infections only affect the symptoms - they rarely address the cause," explains Dr. Brown. "With EPs 7630, practitioners and patients - including young children - have a clinically proven way to fight back naturally."
In March 2008, the Journal of Family Practice commented on Pelargonium sidoides (EPs 7630), "Our conclusion is that patients could be advised to purchase the medication to have on hand at home at the start of the cold season."
