POISONS

Herbal Medicines

  • Get an accurate diagnosis before purchasing herbal medicines.
  • Always inform a doctor of any herbal medicines you are taking in order to prevent a bad interaction with prescription medications.
  • Be aware of any side effects herbs may cause. If you experience any of these side affects, stop taking the herbs immediately and call Carolinas Poison Center.
  • Be certain you purchase your herbal medicines from a reliable source.
  • Avoid any herbal preparations that contain more than one herb.
  • Herbal medicines are not forced to have child-safety caps so children can easily open up bottles.
