Herbal remedies are commonly used by patients worldwide. Because these herbal preparations share the same metabolic and transport proteins with prescribed medicines, the potential for a drug-herb interaction is substantial and is an issue of significant concern. This review paper summarizes drug-herb interactions involving inhibition or induction of cytochrome P450 enzymes, drug transporters as well as modulation of drug pharmacodynamics. An increasing number of in vitro and animal studies, case reports and clinical trials evaluating such interactions have been reported, and implications of these studies are discussed in this review. The most commonly implicated drugs in the interaction include anticoagulants, antiplatelets, immunosuppressants, anti-neoplastics, protease inhibitors, and some antidepressants. Pharmacokinetic and/or pharmacodynamic interactions of five commonly used herbal remedies (danshen, garlic, Ginkgo biloba, ginseng, and St John's wort) with these drugs are presented, with focus of discussion being the potentials for interaction, their mechanisms and clinical implications. There is a necessity for adequate pharmacovigilance to be carried out in minimizing unanticipated but often preventable drug-herb interactions.

This study determined the effects of addition of medicinal herb extracts (Zanthoxylum piperitum extract(TZ), Acanthopanax sessiliflorus(TA), Panax ginseng(TP), Cinnamomum lureitri Nees(TC), Angelica gigantis radix(TAG) and Crataegii fructus extract (TCF) to teriyaki sauce with regard to taste and health benefit. After adding the medicinal herb extracts to teriyaki sauce, moisture content was found to be inversely proportional to the viscosity. The sauce with Panax ginseng extract(TP) had lowest sweetness, but highest salinity. The results showed that the sauce with Korean herb extracts had lower salinity content. In terms of colour value, the sauce with Crataegii fructus extract(TCF) had much higher lightness, redness, and yellowness than sauce prepared with other herb extracts. It had the strongest acidic taste and lowest pH. Sensory evaluation test revealed that the sauce with Anthoxylum piperitum extract(TZ) was the most preferred sauce among all the sauces tested. The degree of brown color of teriyaki sauces was correlated positively with taste preference(r=.570, p<0.01) and overall preference(r=.505, p<0.01).
