(1) An anti-influenza preparation that contains as its main active ingredient
an extract from elderberries.  Alternative medicine or Big Pharma?

(2) "Sambukol," and anti-influenza preparation that contains as its main
active ingredient an extract from elderberries, and which was developed
by scientists at Hebrew University and Hadassah-Ein Kerem hospital after
experiments revealed that elderberry extract appears to have anti-viral
properties.  Alternative medicine or Big Pharma?

Big pharma trying to cut into the growing alternative medicine area.

They're not proud.
