E-DRUG: RFI: Herbal medicines in tea-bag form 
-------------------------------------------------

Hello fellow e-druggers.

I would appreciate any information anyone might have, or links to
sources of information on herbal medicines in tea bag dosage forms
either as instant teas or just herbal teas. I'm particularly interested
in the standardisation process employed and other pharmaceutical
parameters such as dissolution etc, to ensure a certain quantity of the
''actives'' are released. I'm a Masters student working on formulating
herbal medicines in tea bags.

Kind Regards
