The information we present about medicinal plants and herbal remedies is based on traditional usage and published scientific studies. However, natural products can still cause side effects and may interact with prescription medications. The fact that a remedy is "natural" or has been used traditionally does not guarantee that it is safe or effective for you.

Before using any herbal remedy or medicinal plant:

  • Consult a qualified physician or a registered Ayurvedic practitioner
  • Take special care if you are pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Ask about interactions with any medication you currently take
  • Seek medical advice before giving herbs to children
  • Stop use and seek help if you experience an adverse reaction

In a medical emergency, go to the nearest hospital immediately or call your local emergency service (1990 Suwa Seriya in Sri Lanka).
