In Response To: Ginko Biloba Side Effects (Maureen)

Looking up MSDS on any substance is incredibly easy using the web. An MSDS is a "Material Safety Data Sheet", which lists important information about just about any compound that may be used commercially. An MSDS is required in most fields where workers will be exposed to any substance and safety regulations must be met to ensure the worker's health. The MSDS for Ginko Biloba does not give any extra information than what I've found in the literature - especially refering to any side effects of the liquid extract. It explains that ginko biloba can irritate mucous membranes or cause dermitis. It also indicates that alcohol fumes can cause drowsiness or dizziness. I believe this is included because herbal tinctures are often in solutions of alcohol and all substances of a product one purchases must be considered for their safety.
