In Indonesia we have an over the counter herbal medicine names after its main content, Keji Beling. I bet Europe has something similar because one of the other ingredients is one of the milkweeds.
It mainly used for kidney stones but also advertises for gall stones.
As to effectiveness, it is a popular product and cheap. about US$4 for 15 days medication.
My wife has kidney stones and after a botched lithotripsy in Singapore (big name hospital) refuses to undergo the process again, so she has taken Keji Beling since January.
Size of stones in one kidney was 18mm and the other 12 mm.
Three ultrasound checks have been done so far. The results are that in one month there was considerable relief after a lot of pain. The 18 mm stone is now 12 mm, the smaller stone of 12 mm has now become 8 mm. She will have an ultrasound again in a month so we will know how the treatment is going.
She is taking medicine for depression and paranoia and there seems to be no interaction between the medications.
