About Kracie's Prescription Kampo Medicines In 1981, Kracie launched prescription Kampo extract formulations of traditional Kampo medicines. While Kampo was conventionally consumed as a decoction, the extract formulation allowed patients to take it easily. In addition to fine granules, the company introduced tablet-type products for patients who dislike the taste and smell of Kampo.

Responding to patient feedback requesting fewer daily doses and noting frequent missed lunchtime doses, Kracie launched the 'KB2 Stick' in 2002, the first twice-daily prescription Kampo extract formulation. It features a compact stick packaging that is easy to ingest and carry. Kracie is the only company offering a twice-daily line of prescription Kampo extracts matching modern lifestyles. The company will continue providing formulations suited to patient lifestyles.

About Kracie Pharma As Kampo professionals, Kracie Pharma has supported the health and well-being of people in Japan for over half a century. It offers a wide range of products from OTC to prescription medicines under an integrated in-house system. Responding to changing societal views on health, the company aims to enhance the health value provided through Kampo medicine by strengthening the collaboration between its prescription and OTC fields as 'Kracie's Kampo'.
