Have you heard of patients who used Tikva and got positive results?

Not necesarily a study....

Expert:  Dr. Zia replied 5 years ago.

Patient's testimonials about a certain medication are not enough solid scientific evidence. Although there are patients who have seen improvement with this medication but other factors should also be considered as well in addition to the use of the medication which can only be assessed properly by sceintific research. FDA usually does not approve or disapprove of supplements such as Tikva that are available in the market.
