The information provided is based on the current literature and evidence avialable. For some herbs, there is little information available and the evidence of side effects is anecdotal. However, we are endeavouring to update and improve the quality of information all the time. We advice you to discuss taking any herbal medicines with a person who specialises in this field.

Nephronline or the authors cannot take any responsibility for any adverse effects from the use of these herbs.
