Evidence grade: Insufficientauto-proposed · unreviewedSafety signal: CautionMapping confidence: Strong correspondence

The three axes are assessed independently and are never combined into a single score.

KTKP records the origin species as Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch.. It has not yet been cross-checked against the Korean Pharmacopoeia, so the identification confidence is not raised to an official code mapping. The same drug appears under 6 records as name variants. The same source species also yields 3 other separately registered drug(s) (Glycyrrhizae Praeparatus Pulvis, Glycyrrhizae Radicii Virgula, Glycyrrhizae Radix Praeparata), which must not be conflated. The name most used for this taxon in current literature is Glycyrrhiza uralensis. Literature searches for this herb also cover Glycyrrhizae uralensis — the same taxon appears under several names. The nomenclatural discussion for this herb was flagged for correction during verification; only the verified facts are shown here, with the details in docs/HERB_NAME_RESEARCH.md.

  • This signal was read off the NCCIH text by keyword rules. A curator must read the source and confirm it.
  • The NCCIH page deals mainly with G. glabra rather than this species.
  • The KTKP record states the following traditional contraindication: 대극(大戟), 원화(芫花), 감수(甘遂)와 같이 쓰면 안 됨.
  • NCCIH states: · Licorice contains a component called glycyrrhizin, or glycyrrhizic acid, that can cause serious adverse effects, such as irregular heartbeat and cardiac arrest, especially when consumed in large amounts or in the long term.
  • NCCIH states: Even small amounts of glycyrrhizin from licorice root products have been linked to severe adverse effects in people who consume a lot of salt, in people with hypertension, and in people with heart or kidney conditions.
  • NCCIH states: · Consuming oral licorice extract in large amounts (about 250 grams of licorice per week) during pregnancy is unsafe and can increase the risk of delivery before gestational age of 38 weeks.
  • NCCIH states: Little is known about whether it is safe to use licorice while breastfeeding.
