Is there a Chinatown in your area? You might be able to find some patent medicines there. Also, Planetary Formulas has several patent medicines repackaged with Western Names.
Also, this looks promising:

The lanzhou foci brand is pretty much the standard for patents. I just bought 2 months supply on a recent trip to Hong Kong. I won't mention how cheap they were! This page also has some other brand of patents and concentrated extract granules.

If you are going to take herbs for a while, buying raw herbs in bulk can be cost effective and more effective in terms of potency. It's more work, but no harder than making soup or tea.
