Goldenseal General Information
For hundreds of years, Native American Indians used Goldenseal as a dye and as a treatment for skin disorders, digestive problems, liver disease, diarrhea, and eye irritations. The colonists learned from the Iroquois how to use Goldenseal as a part of their medical care regimen, and in the early 1800s, it was used as a substitute for Coptis root.

Goldenseal Uses & Scientific Evidence For
Goldenseal is primarily used as a topical for wounds that are not healing well. There are no reliable scientific studies to verify the healing effects of Goldenseal, however, what is known is that berberine, a constituent of Goldenseal, has shown strong activity against a wide variety of bacteria and fungi. Goldenseal is most effective by direct contact; however, it can also be effective for sore throats and the digestive tract problems because it can contact the affected area directly. Goldenseal has been used to treat urinary tract infections as well. Often Goldenseal is taken with echinacea as an “immune booster“ and antibiotic for the prevention and treatment of colds. There is no evidence to support Goldenseal as effective when used that way; however, echinacea can be helpful. For more information on echinacea, search the Herbal Remedies Supplement and Product Index.

Goldenseal Dosage Information
As a topical treatment for skin wounds, use a sufficient quantity of Goldenseal cream, ointment, or powder to the affected area. Clean the wound at least once a day to prevent Goldenseal particles from being trapped in the tissues as they heal. For sore throats and mouth sores Goldenseal tincture can be swished or gargled in the mouth, or a tea can be used for this treatment as well. To aid the digestive tract or loosen clogged sinuses, a standard oral dosage of Goldenseal is 250 to 500 mg 3 times daily. Read Product label directions before use.

Goldenseal Safety & Interaction Information
Goldenseal is generally regarded as safe when used as directed; however, berberine has been reported to cause uterine contractions and to increase levels of bilirubin, therefore, Goldenseal should not be used by pregnant women. Safety in young children, nursing women, or those with severe liver or kidney disease is not known.
