The Botanical Safety Handbook is an essential tool for anyone who manufactures, recommends, or uses herbal products. It provides safety information on over 500 species of herbs, derived from data compiled from clinical trials, pharmacological and toxicological studies, medical case reports, and historical texts.. In this workshop, we’ll review the ongoing process used to develop and peer review entries in the Botanical Safety Handbook, and then do a deep dive into several of the entries themselves to review the available safety science and how they are categorized.
