About Sambong (MIA FORTE) 500mg Tablet 100’s

Sambong (MIA FORTE) 500mg Tablet 100’s is a natural, plant-based medicine made from the leaves of the Blumea balsamifera plant, commonly known as Sambong in the Philippines. It is traditionally used and scientifically recognized as a diuretic and urinary tract health supplement, helping manage mild hypertension, fluid retention, and kidney stone formation. Each tablet contains 500 mg of dried and powdered Sambong leaves, formulated to support kidney and bladder function safely and naturally.

This herbal medicine works primarily by increasing urine production (diuresis), thereby assisting in the elimination of excess fluids and sodium from the body. Sambong may also help reduce the size of urinary calculi (kidney stones), and promote urinary flow, making it beneficial for patients at risk of urolithiasis or those with mild urinary tract infections.

MIA FORTE Sambong 500mg Tablets are ideal for adults looking for natural support in managing mild kidney or urinary issues. It is approved by the Philippine FDA as a Herbal Medicinal Product, and is part of the Department of Health’s (DOH) list of recommended medicinal plants.
