Uva Ursi Cautions

Contraindications:

"You shouldn�t use the herb internally for more than about four days.

    It is astringent to the mucosa, and, especially in the last trimester of pregnancy,

    can decrease placenta-uterine membrane permeability; it is probably not a good

    idea to use Uva Ursi during pregnancy."     Ref. B p.245

    " Prolonged use results in constipation."      Ref D p.156
