Who should ask a doctor before using hawthorn flower tea regularly? — Hawthorn flowers and leaves 25g

Although hawthorn flowers are mild, caution is warranted in a few specific situations. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication for blood pressure or a cardiac condition, or have any ongoing medical condition, ask your doctor or pharmacist before using this product regularly. The same applies if you are already under specialist care, because herbs can interact with prescribed medicines in ways that are not always obvious.

Treat this product as a food item rather than as a medicine. LEKRASET hawthorn flowers are intended as a herbal tea ingredient and are not meant to diagnose, treat or prevent any disease. They do not replace a balanced diet, prescribed treatment, or a doctor's advice. If you notice an unusual reaction after drinking the tea, stop using it and consult a doctor.

The main question is not the tea itself but the situation: regular use during pregnancy, breastfeeding, with cardiac or blood-pressure medication, or with a chronic condition calls for a doctor's advice. When in doubt, mention the product to your doctor or pharmacist and let them advise you on whether it fits your routine.
