Chikungunya - An Ounce of Prevention!*

I received this very useful piece of information from Raama.

With Kerala also in the grip of a vicious Chikungunya, please note that there is a Chikungunya preventive.

It's called "Eupatorium Perfoliatum-30", 5 pills per dose. (Homeopathy)

Adults: One dose daily for THREE days.

Children (below 12 years): One dose for ONE day.

FYI,

Shastri

Here is what I found on availability of this drug in the US.

* There is no cure yet, even if we are prepared to pay for a pound of it! For now, we should try our best to avoid mosquitoes, and take this medication when we go to mosquito infested areas.
