Daun sirsak (Annona muricata), daun salam (Syzygium polyanthum), dan buah mentimun (Cucumissativus) adalah bahan alam yang paling banyak digunakan oleh pasien hipertensi. Rerata tekanan darah sistolik(p=0,004; 95% CI -19,8 – -3,8) dan diastolik (p=0,038; 95% CI -9,6 – -0,29) untuk pengguna bahan alam lebihrendah jika dibandingkan dengan pengguna obat konvensional. Rerata MMAS untuk pengguna bahan alam lebih tinggi jika dibandingkan dengan pengguna obat konvensional (p=0,004; 95% CI 0,31 – 1,6).

Potential Impact

The purpose of this paper is to explore the possibility that adverse reactions and drug interactions arising from the use of homeopathic and herbal medicines could lead to confusion when adverse reactions to conventional medicines are reported. An extensive literature review was conducted on the occurrence of adverse reactions and drug interactions following the use of homeopathic or herbal remedies, and the potential for these to confound adverse event reporting to conventional medicines considered. The survey demonstrates the potential for herbal remedies and homeopathic products, to produce adverse drug reactions or drug interactions, and shows the scope for potential for confusion with those arising from conventional medicines. There is a need for greater awareness that adverse reactions apparently due to a conventional medicine, might in reality be due to a herbal medicine or a drug interaction between a herbal medicine and a conventional drug, particularly when a health professional is unaware of the extent of a patient's selfmedication with alternative therapies.
