A common mistake is assuming one herbal routine fits everyone. Another is prolonged, high-dose, or combined use without clinical oversight. Product quality (standardization, adulteration, contamination) and incorrect preparation can also increase risk. A safer strategy is moderation, monitoring, and professional input when symptoms persist.

Decision rule: don’t confuse short-term relief seeking with long-term risk management. If symptoms become chronic or impact quality of life, use professional guidance to build a personalized plan.
