It works quite well for its intended use. Since it is not to be taken internally, but is only to be applied topically to the skin surface, I don't see why there should be much concern, provided that it is kept out of the reach of small children like all medicines.
I have never experienced a single negative effect from its use, nor have any of my patients, to the best of my knowledge.
There was one dumb-ass patient years ago, however, who drank some of it for reasons known only to him, who reported that it tasted terrible, but aside from that there has never been a problem with this product.

The real problem is not with bonafide tcm docs, it is with the charlatans who do dangerous things out of ego.
If laws are the way to restrict them from practice, then so be it. I think that is reasonable and I also think folding it into teh existing medical schools is welcome as well.
I don't put much stock in the idea we'll have a hard time getting spices because the various medical associations have standards around who can and who cannot practice medicine. I am thankful that they set these standards and force accountability onto all their practitioners.
Do no harm is not an oath that dabblers take.
So, I am in the camp of making it hard for non accredited people from practicing medicine and I am not ashamed to admit that I don't put any stock into primitive shamanistic medical practices anymore than anyone else in the modern era.

the bigger problem is that the FDA is no more interested in the safety of food or drugs than the federal government is interested in helping you with your bad mortgage.
