Bupleurum: Bupleurum is an herb that is typically found in East Asia. Bupleurum has long thin leaves that look like fennel. Thrombocytopenia may respond in some cases to treatment with bupleurum-containing herbal formulas. However, currently there is not enough available evidence for or against the use of bupleurum for this indication.Avoid if allergic or hypersensitive to bupleurum or any members of the Apiaceae or Umbelliferae (carrot) families. Use cautiously if driving or operating heavy machinery because bupleurum may cause drowsiness. Use cautiously with diabetes, high blood pressure, or edema. Use cautiously if taking drugs that increase the risk of bleeding (anticoagulants).Natural Standard Monograph, Copyright © 2008 (www.naturalstandard.com).
