Guest guest Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 Claudine, Thank you so much for the information and warning. Sally RE: astragalus - warning about Bupleurum Do NOT take this formula if you are on treatment! It contains Bupleurum root, which interacts with interferon and has caused deaths. It is a great Chinese herb if you are NOT on treatment though. If you have high blood pressure or portal hypertension you should be very cautious with this formula (or just avoid) due to the Licorice root.
