Safety Warning Notes

After Jeremy Ross course
JRHCs are designed to be used only after
the appropriate Jeremy Ross herb course in
which their detailed use and safety precautions
are discussed.
After individual consultation
JRHCs should only be supplied to a patient
following an individual consultation of that
patient with a licensed health practitioner.
Practitioner responsibility
It is the responsibility of the practitioner
to make an accurate diagnosis, and to decide
whether a herb combination is appropriate
for a specific patient at a particular time.
Check for contraindications
Practitioners are advised never to use a
herb combination without checking the potential
contraindications of each constituent herb
for the particular patient at the time of
treatment.

Appropriate dose
It is the responsibility of the practitioner to
prescribe herbs in appropriate dose for the age, constitution, and condition of the patient.
Conventional diagnosis and treatment
JRHCs are not proposed as an alternative to conventional
medical diagnosis and treatment, when this is necessary
for the patient.
Local laws
It is the responsibility of practitioners to be
aware of any special restrictions on herb prescribing
specific to their own country.
