We hope you remember when Mid-West Pharmacy proudly announced that we were presenting a collection of Chinese herbal products.

These herbal products are designed exclusively for Mid-West Pharmacy by Alan H. Blanc, M.D., L.Ac.

Dr. Blanc is a licensed physician and is also a licensed Acupuncturist. Most importantly, he is also trained and certified in Chinese herbal medicine. You may review his website at www.drblanc.com

Each of Dr. Blanc’s formulations for our pharmacy is unique and would be very difficult to find in the special combination we have available. Each formula is assembled by a Chinese pharmacy, in California so that nothing is shipped from out of State.

Our most popular liquid products include; “Immune Booster Tea” and “Daytime Calming Tea”. Among our granular capsules is “Yan Hu Suo/Corydalis”, a successful painkiller that contains no aspirin or NSAID.

To view much of our line, please click on Herbal Liquids, Herbal Tonics, Essential Oils or contact us press here.

We have come to realize that it remains difficult for you, our customer, to feel you have enough personalized information from the websites alone. Therefore, Dr. Blanc has agreed to be available in our Pharmacy every Thursday from 1:00-2:00 P.M. He will answer your questions related to health and herbs. He will also be available to take your calls during those periods at 310-657-1635.

Based on your response, and interest in this program we hope to continue this arrangement in the future to better help you become more familiar with these herbs, and their use and value to you individually.
