Herbal supplements are available without prescription in many
countries throughout the world and accounting for over $30 billion
U.S dollar in sale. A majority of U.S population (25-40%) use
herbal supplements while alternative medicines are major forms of
therapy in third world countries used by as much as 80% population.
Contrary to the popular belief that herbal remedies are safe and
effective, many herbal supplements have known toxicity and
unexpected laboratory test results may be the early indications of
such toxicity. In addition, some herbal products such as St. John's
wort can interact with many Western drugs causing increased
clearance of such drugs and hence treatment failure. This monograph
would provide information on how herbal supplements affect
laboratory test results thus patient's safety. This monograph would
provide a comprehensive and concise practical guide for laboratory
professionals, physicians and other health care professionals. The
emphasis of this monograph is to provide clinically relevant
information rather than discussing in detail mechanisms of such
effect, although brief explanations would be provided for such
unexpected test results.
