Izifozonke is a commercial herbal mixture used in South African traditional medicine. It has been used by consumers seeking HIV treatment [1] and self-induced abortions.[2] It is categorized as a "general tonic,"[3] and the potion's tagline is "amazing mixture for all diseases".[4] Other commercial herbal preparations sold in South African markets include Tokoloshe salts, Tshepe, Impotex forte, Sex sugar, and Fire-BarkTea, a product made of Bangalala root and marketed to men.[4]
