Finally the first shipment of the Ayurvedic product Kamalahar to United States has happened. The product was send to an old lady who has been suffering from viral hepatitis C. Our client said that she did not want to take western medicine and instead wanted to go for alternative medicine as there is no cure for hepatitis C in western medicine.

The way it started was quite interesting. One fine morning Khatore Pharmaceuticals received an email in the customer support email id, requesting about the product that is very good for liver disorders and viral hepatitis C. At that time Khatore Pharmaceuticals had not yet setup the logistics for shipment of the products to USA or for that matter any country outside India. The company was still putting things in place for the online store for shipments of ayurvedic products in India. Till last year, i.e. 2010, the company was only doing direct selling through chemists and stores in eastern part of India. Finally we decided to go online to expand our reach to patients all over India and finally to the people who are suffering from liver disorders in the whole world. But we had thought we might just be focused on India market for some time to come. But after the email and a request from her that she has been suffering from quite some time and does not want
to use the allopathic medicines (in which anyways there is currently no cure for Hepatitis C) we decided to setup the things in a jiffy.

We discussed the options with our client and asked her the various options of shipment and payment. We asked her if there was someone she knows in India who was travelling to USA so that we can ship Kamalahar to him/her and they can take Kamalahar to our client. She said she did not know anybody and would rather have the ayurvedic product Kamalahar shipped to her through courier or post. We were not sure if it will reach her. But we decided to give it a try and shipped Kamalahar to our client through an international courier even though we were not sure if it would reach her.

Finally after a wait of 10 days the shipment arrived at her door step and she has started to take Kamalahar, our best medicine for the treatment of liver disorders such as hepatitis, jaundice, cirrhosis, fatty liver, etc. We also asked her to do undergo liver function tests before she starts taking Kamalahar and after she takes it for two weeks so that we can track her progress and show it to her directly the improvements in her health. We got the reports after two weeks and as expected the report has started showing positive results. We are quite excited as so far we have only served patients in India but with this successful shipment to USA, the whole market of developed world has opened up for us.

I am looking forward to providing Kamalahar to needy people in USA, Canada and all the other countries. In fact if things work out as planned we will look forward to shipping our other Ayurvedic products too. We have started our campaign to reach out to people outside India and started to get query from people outside India. There are many people who suffer from liver disorders in all the countries of the world. Ayurvedic products of Khatore Pharmaceuticals are very cost effective as one bottle of thirty Kamalahar capsules cost less than three dollars. There is one catch that we are trying to figure out how to solve. The catch is currently the shipment cost to countries outside India is way more than the price of Khatore Pharmaceuticals ayurvedic products. But hopefully we will be able to bring it down in due course of time.
