This text provides clear instructions for making herbal medicines in the home or clinic as well as detailed information about industrial manufacturing processes. Recipes and instructions are provided for making everything from simple herbal teas to more complex preparations such as tablets, syrups, lotions, creams, pessaries, poultices and compresses. How to make alcohol-based fluid extracts that are commonly used by herbalists is also covered in detail.
