Who Should Avoid Feverfew?

⚠️ Pregnant and Breastfeeding Women – Feverfew is not recommended during pregnancy as it may have uterine-stimulating effects, potentially increasing the risk of miscarriage. It should also be avoided while breastfeeding, as there isn’t enough information on its safety for nursing infants.
⚠️ People with Allergies to Ragweed or Related Plants – Feverfew belongs to the Asteraceae family, which includes ragweed, chamomile, and daisies. Individuals who have allergic reactions to these plants may also experience reactions to feverfew.
⚠️ People with Blood Clotting Disorders or Taking Blood Thinners – Feverfew may have mild blood-thinning properties, so it should be used with caution by individuals who are on anticoagulant medications (e.g., warfarin) or those with bleeding disorders.
⚠️ People with Sensitivity to Herbal Supplements – Some people may experience mild side effects from feverfew, including oral irritation (a sore mouth or tongue), nausea, or digestive discomfort when using it in supplement form.
