The TAMPCOL (Tamil Nadu Medicinal Plant Farms and Herbal Medicine Corporation) unit which was opened in Pudukottai in February has been sending ‘kabasura’ and ‘nilavembu’ herbal powder packets to 19 southern districts, including Pudukottai, Collector P. Uma Maheswari said on Friday.
Speaking to reporters after inspecting the unit, Ms. Uma Maheswari said 450 kilograms of the herbal powders were being prepared every day at the unit. Kabasura kudineer and nilavembu kudineer were being given to patients and the general public to boost their immunity in the current COVID-19 pandemic times, she said.
Both products were being manufactured at the TAMPCOL unit in Pudukottai using different types of herbs. The two products were being sent to Government Hospitals and Primary Health Centres.
