Medicinal Herbs

Medicinal Herbs: A Compendium contains the profiles of about 200 important and commonly used medicinal herbs. This concise resource is translated and updated from the German compendium Arzneidrogenprofile (2000) and was largely edited by the late Varro E. Tyler before his death in 2001. The book includes critical comments concerning application, herbal tea preparations, contraindications, adverse effects, and interactions with other drugs. With this guide, pharmacists and health practitioners will be able to quickly find information on medicinal plants and directions for their use.
