Honeysuckle flower 金銀花

Pharmaceutical nameLonicerae Flos

Evidence grade: Not gradedSafety signal: Adverse-event literature existsMapping confidence: Strong correspondence

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

KTKP records the origin species as Lonicera japonica Thunb.. 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 2 records as name variants. The same source species also yields 2 other separately registered drug(s) (Lonicerae Folium, Lonicerae Caulis), which must not be conflated. The name most used for this taxon in current literature is Lonicera japonica.

It lists 심(心), 위(胃), 폐(肺) as the channels entered. The same record cites the Donguibogam (1613) as the source for its indications.

Safety

auto-proposed · unreviewed

  • 13 adverse-event or toxicity record(s) were found. This only flags that literature exists — read the abstracts to decide between "caution" and "harm confirmed".
  • 1 interaction-related record(s) are retrievable. This flags that literature exists — it is not an interaction checker (§3.4).
  • The KTKP record states the following traditional contraindication: 허한작사자(虛寒作瀉者)는 복용을 기(忌)하고, 외양기허농청자(外瘍氣虛膿淸者)는 복용을 금(禁)한다.

Interaction literature

This lists literature that is retrievable — it is not a judgement that an interaction exists. Read the papers to decide.
