Vietnam bestows honor on herbal medicine for prostate cancer
Trumpet lily (Crinum latifolium)
A Vietnamese medical research organization received the country’s highest honor for producing an herbal drug treating prostate cancer.

The state-owned Research and Development Center also received the health ministry’s nod to use a catchy phrase on the drug bottles.

Crila, for which it received a gold medal Saturday, is the result of many years of research abroad by Dr Nguyen Thi Ngoc Tram, head of the center. The drug is made from the leaves of a kind of trumpet Lily (Crinum latifolium).

The center has been allowed to print the legend “a quality product for community health” on Crila bottles.
