Uporaba zdravilnih rastlin med prebivalci Velenja = The use of the medicinal herbs in the city of VelenjeKlemenc-Ketiš, Zalika ; Verovnik, FrancBackground. Data about the use of medicinal herbs for selftreatment in our population is sparse. Therefore the aim of our survey was to investigate the measures taken by patients with four most ... frequent symptoms, which medicinal herbs they used and where they got them. Methods. Irz the streets of the city of Velenje 184 randomly chosen adults were asked about the measures to cope with their four most common symptoms: abdominal pain, headache, diarrhoea and raised body temperature. Results. 72 percent of people surveyed use medicinal herbs. The use increases with advancing age. There are no differences regarding their education. It has been f ound that the pill is mostly used while the medicinal herbs take the third place. The most frequently used herb is camomile (Matricaria chamomilla). The herbs are mainly provided by the users themselves. Conclusions. Medicinal herbs are often used in combination with conventional therapy, without proper knowledge of their side effects and the harm of potentional misuse. The physicians are mainly not aware of their use among the patients. The importance of this problem for the public health service is thus essential.Source: Zdravniški vestnik : glasilo Slovenskega zdravniškega društva = Slovenian medical journal = journal of Slovenian Medical Association. - ISSN 1318-0347 (Letn. 73, št. 2, februar 2004, str. 59-62)Type of material - article, component partPublish date - 2004Language - slovenianCOBISS.SI-ID - 17560537
