Revision - approved drug in South Korea?[edit]

This edit reverted the prior version which claimed mesima as an approved drug in S. Korea using this source, which does not look like a drug approval to me, but rather is a dietary supplement with extensive unproved claims by the manufacturer. The new version also dismissed four lab research publications, which are unencyclopedic and do not meet WP:MEDRS. There are no MEDRS-quality reviews on this mushroom or its extracts.

Medical inaccuracy[edit]

This article claims this mushroom can be used to treat a skin condition called pemphigus- but the reference cited in the article states the opposite!

“P. linteus use resulted in worsening of an autoimmune skin condition called pemphigus that is characterized by blisters, itching, and burning.”

The rest of the cited medical source does not make the claim that’s included in the Wikipedia entry. Camelspit (talk) 15:15, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
