Scientific Summary

Butterbur (Petasites hybridus) is a flowering plant whose dried leaves are processed into herbal extracts. It is primarily used to relieve seasonal allergic rhinitis and to reduce the frequency of migraine headaches. Because the extract contains toxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids, it should not be taken internally by pregnant or nursing women, children under 12, or people with liver disease; only products that have been adequately tested and declared low‑alkaloid are considered safe.
