We present the first reported case of valerian (Valeriana officianalis) overdose. This herb is popular as a sedative but little is known about its toxic effects. The patient presented with mild symptoms, all of which resolved within 24 h. Valerian overdose, at approximately 20 times the recommended therapeutic dose, appears to be benign.
我们报告了首例缬草过量使用的病例。这种草药作为镇静剂很受欢迎,但对其毒性作用知之甚少。患者出现轻度症状,所有症状在24小时内均得到缓解。缬草过量使用,剂量约为推荐治疗剂量的20倍,似乎并无大碍。
