It looks like this is something new, never saw it before.
It is a 16oz bottle for $22.93

Right now it is impossible to find the Planetary Herbals
every store is out of stock, who knows may be they will come out with a new product.

These are the Now ingredients:

Proprietary Liquid Extract Blend of:
Licorice Root (Glycyrrhiza glabra), Dandelion Root (Taraxacum officinale), Gentian Root (Gentiana lutea), Angelica Root (Angelica archangelica), Turmeric Root (Curcuma longa), Juniper Berry (Juniperus communis), Blessed Thistle (Cnicus benedictus) (Aerial Parts) and Rhubarb Root (Rheum palmatum)

Hv does this sound ok, except may be the rhubarb root.

The rhubarb root is not good since it is a strong stimulant laxative.

Another herb that should have been left out was the angelica root, which contains coumarins and psoralens that are photosensitizers.

If people stick to the small amounts I recommend, a half dropper full, the risk of problems is negligible.
