Pelargonium sidoides is a native plant of the South Africa which is turned into a herbal remedyto treat respiratory tract infectionsby phytomedicinal studies. Although severe hypersensitivity reactions to this drug is reported to be very rare, the risk of interactions with anticoagulant (warfarin) and antiplatelet (aspirin) drugs must be kept in mind.
