The clinical utility of Oralmat Drops Solution has become increasingly clear. Controlled clinical trials have been completed regarding its effectiveness for the treatment of mild to moderate adult asthma. Although no formal trial has been conducted regarding its role for people with Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), the value of Oralmat for such disease has become apparent. This represents clinical observations gathered both from a physicians standpoint as well as from the patient's perspective.

The cases reported here (unless otherwise noted) are from the Being Alive Wellness Center (Wellness Center), the medical program of AIDS Project Arizona, a free-of-charge, not-for- profit, state- and federally-funded program for people infected with and affected by HIV I have been working with this population for the last two years using a multi- modality approach including nutrition and diet therapy, homeopathy, botanical medicine, hydrotherapy, physical medicine, and Oriental medicine with an emphasis on acupuncture. I feel comfortable saying that we have had good success in treating our patients by ameliorating symptoms from both the virus as well as the antiviral medications, and by increasing their resistance to opportunistic infections. We have also been successful in teaching our patients healthy lifestyle strategies so they can function better on a daily basis and hope to live longer, healthier lives. As the Wellness Center is only open for medical visits two nights a week, our mission is not to provide primary care, rather adjunct care to anyone in the HIV community. The cases that follow are a summary of the experiences I and other physicians have had using Oralmat for the treatment of people with HIV disease.
