    Natural Standard, The Authority on Integrative Medicine answered:
    Buchu is not recommended in pregnant or breastfeeding women due to a lack of available scientific evidence. According to traditional use, buchu may be an abortifacient (induce abortion) and may stimulate uterine contractions.

    2. You should read product labels, and discuss all therapies with a qualified healthcare provider. Natural Standard information does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
