Sambong: Side Effects Or Any Overdosage?

Updated

My husband has been taking Sambong, in natural dried form, boiled in water for years now. I noticed that he takes the concoction very strong or very concentrated. Since sambong is said to dissolve renal stone, is there danger of damaging the kidney tissue if too much of it is taken?

Has he consulted his doctor?

Sambong is an herbal supplement, it is used to treat cold symptoms, urinary tract infections, kidney stones and as a diuretic.

Unfortunately, as a supplement, the side effects and possible long-term effects of use or overdosage have not been studied for it, as is done for actual prescription medications.
