Homeopathic aconite significantly relieved pain and discomfort after surgery in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Further information is needed to confirm these results.Aconite is highly toxic and is not safe for human consumption. Avoid with heart disease, heart dysfunction, irregular heartbeat, hemodynamic instability (abnormal blood flow), gastrointestinal disorders, ulcers, reflux esophagitis, ulcerative colitis, spastic colitis, and diverticulosis (intestinal disorder).
