Preface. This first edition of Stockley’s Herbal Medicines Interactions is an exciting new addition to the Stockley family of products, and one that has been several years in the planning and execution. When researching Stockley’s Drug Interactions we had noticed the growing wealth of experimental data on herbal medicines, which does not fall within the brief of Stockley, which is primarily a clinically based reference work. However, it seemed somewhat of an omission to overlook what is obviously valuable information in what can almost be considered a new field of drug interactions. We therefore reached the point where we decided that it was worth producing a book dedicated to this information; however, little did we realise what a journey we’d be taking ourselves on. As a group dedicated to the study of drug interactions, and the provision of clinically relevant data (aided by the large number of practising pharmacists we have on our team), we felt well equipped to deal with the interactions data. The herbal medicines side of things was, however, not something that we were particularly familiar with, and we were greatly relieved to be approached by Elizabeth Williamson, with a very similar idea to our own, but with a wealth of knowledge on herbal medicines with which to guide us. Liz is widely published in the field of herbal medicines, and is a member of a number of bodies that consider many aspects of herbal medicine use, such as the British Pharmacopoeia Commission. Liz is the Chair of the Expert Advisory Group for Herbal and Complementary Medicines, which advises the BPC on standards for herbal drugs for the pharmaceutical industry. As a team therefore, we feel we have unrivalled experience in assessing herb–drug interactions, and we believe that ours is a unique collaboration. Herbal medicines are, more than ever, receiving attention, both from the public and healthcare professionals alike, with many countries now undertaking registration schemes for traditional medicines. However, healthcare professionals still freely admit their lack of knowledge in this area, and surveys suggest that patients often rely on friends and family for advice about herbal medicines. Never has there been a more appropriate time to advise healthcare professionals so that they can provide balanced, helpful advice to patients wishing to take herbal medicines with their ‘conventional’ treatments. Our aim, as ever, has therefore been to critically evaluate the published literature and present it in a familiar, easy-tohandle format, so that the busy healthcare professional can quickly access the information and apply it to their clinical situation. ...
