I wonder why they only list the name of that formula in Japanese. I suppose one could compare the ingredients to that of a prepared patent medicine. Plum Flower and Min Shan are brands I've used, but never for depression.
The problem is that herbal formulas are often custom made to match your particular energetic profile. They may not necessarily just treat symptoms like western medicine. They attempt to balance the relationship between the organ systems, and each person will have his or her own unique imbalance.
If you need to find a TCM doctor in your area, try contacting a local Kung Fu school or massage therapist.
