Nonspecific respiratory illnesses play a dominant part in childhood. Causal therapy to improve the immunologic defence mechanism does not exist as yet. Treatment with so-called immunostimulating and immunoregulating products is widespread, their effectiveness, however, is controversial. PADMA 28, a Tibetan herbal remedy, appears to have demonstrable immunoregulating characteristics. It also has a positive influence on the frequency and severity of respiratory infections in children.
