Herbal Medicines is the internationally acclaimed guide for healthcare professionals to herbs commonly used in complementary and alternative medicine. First published in 1996, this new 2nd edition has been substantially revised and expanded to include new herbal materials and to take account of the recently published literature on this subject.

In addition to an overview of the uses, efficacy and safety of herbal medicines, data on legislation applicable to the use of herbal substances in medicine is provided. Additionally, detailed, structured, monographs on 148 of the most commonly used herbs are included. Authoritative information detailing the phytochemical, pharmacological and clinical aspects of herbal medicines is described including data on usage, dosage, safety, efficacy and interactions; all referenced to the primary literature. Of note, the BC Pharmacy Association 'adopted' this reference as a required book for the Herbal Medicine reference element for pharmacies.
