History
The formula for pei pa koa was originally created by Dr. Ip Tin-See, a physician in the Qing Dynasty. Yang Jin, a county commander, asked Doctor Ip to treat his mother's persistent cough. They were so impressed that they created a factory to mass-produce it. Later, the Yang family sold the business to Tse Sui-Bong, a medicine practitioner. Nin Jiom Medicine Manufacturing was incorporated in 1962 to expand the business. Today, it is manufactured and sold by Nin Jiom Medicine Manufactory Limited, a Hong Kong corporation. It is available worldwide.
Pei pa koa has annual sales of 45 million USD. The product is marketed under the brand name "Cap Ibu dan Anak" in Malaysia.
