Doctors in Canada have warned that people taking warfarin to prevent blood clots should stay away from products containing Chamomile. In the article provided by Reuters UK the doctors go on to state the case of a 70 year old woman taking warfarin who developed severe internal bleeding after applying chamomile lotion and drinking chamomile tea.
Although known to react with garlic, onion and ginger this is the first documented case of a reaction with chamomile.
Louise Pilote from McGill University health Centre in Montreal advised patients "to make their Doctors and pharmacists aware of what prescribed and herbal products they consume so that potentially harmful interactions can be identified."
