It is specifically helpful for patients suffering from leg swelling, varicose veins and itchiness to name a few. It has also been deemed by some to be effective in the healing of fractures. Other desirable effects of Butcher’s Broom include laxative effects which aids in improved bowel movement of the patient.

Nausea and/ or vomiting are common side effects when taking this plant. Another special precaution is placed on pregnant women or lactating mothers for taking this herb. Further studies are yet to be conducted to ensure that no harm can be done to the pregnant mother or her unborn child.
