The explosion in sales of herbal therapies has brought products to the marketplaces that do not conform to the standards of safety and efficacy that physicians and patients expect. They should caution patients that lack of standardization, quality control, and regulation may result in variability in herbal content, efficacy, and potential contamination. Physicians should be aware of potential adverse reactions stemming from herbal medicine use, especially with regard to preoperative bleeding, cardiovascular instability, pregnancy, and interactions with commonly prescribed sedative-hypnotic agents. |
