Herbs - Senna - Contraindications / Precautions / Warnings

Do not use in inflammatory bowel conditions such as colitis, Crohn's disease, ileus, appendicitis, or abdominal pain of unknown origin.

Your body will become dependent on senna if used continually over a long period of time. The root cause of the constipation should be looked in to and other remedies should be employed.

Avoid in pregnancy as senna is too strong a purgative.
