Materia medica is a Latin medical term for the body of collected knowledge about the therapeutic properties of any substance used for healing (i.e., medicines). In Latin, the term literally means "medical material/substance". The term was used from the period of the Roman Empire until the twentieth century, but has now been generally replaced in medical education contexts by the term pharmacology.

Q. If available please tell me the materia medica in which it is available.

A. She's half right... there's no natural product that can claim to be a cure... but that's because different people respond differently to different products. There are many natural products that can help nourish the Prostate, though. There's Saw Palmetto, Pygeum, Pumpkin Seed, Lycopene, Nettle Leaf, Glycine, Alanine, and Glutamine as the most popular products for general Prostate health.
