Why Phytopharmaceuticals Instead of Chemical Compounds?
Pharmaceuticals made from chemical compounds are prone to adverse side effects. The human body will have a tendency to reject certain chemical compounds which do not occur naturally. These rejections occur in the form of side effects; some as mild as minor headaches, and others as severe as to be potentially lethal. It is important to note while phytopharmaceuticals produce fewer to no side effects, chemical interactions with other prescription drugs can occur. What Should You Watch Out For? While therapies such as herbal remedies and phytopharmaceuticals have been used for centuries, if not millennia, modern science has been reluctant to accept this discipline. Recently however giants such as Miles Laboratories and Upjohn Pharmaceuticals have begun to realize the tremendous clinical benefits of naturally occurring remedies as well as their popularity with the public. As this industry continues to grow, the public must be aware and research the different therapies they are considering.
