Herbal mix plus tenofovir shows promise for hepatitis b control
NCT ID NCT01198860
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a combination of four herbs (Phyllanthus urinaria, Adenosma glutinosum, Eclipta prostrata, and ascorbic acid) plus the drug tenofovir can help control hepatitis B over the long term. The treatment aims to strengthen the immune system and reduce virus levels. Adults with chronic or acute hepatitis B who have had the virus for at least 6 months and have stable liver function may join.
