Summary

Cistus incanus, 2100mg daily, taken as one part of a broader antiretroviral regimen, including tenofovir titrated up over seven months plus N-acetylcysteine, glutathione, niacinamide, reishi mushroom and green tea extract, that a mother, Katharina Voss, describes developing for her daughter. The daughter was bedridden (Bell Scale 0) with ME; duration of illness before starting is not stated. The mother reports the antiretroviral therapy was successful, with improvements enabling a return to functional life. She is explicit that this is ongoing treatment, not a cure, so maintenance is required rather than a one-time fix. No further relapse information is given.
