PubMed: 10796719Seguridad y Precauciones
El uso de Hypericum ericoides debe abordarse con extrema cautela debido a su complejidad química y su potencial para alterar procesos fisiológicos fundamentales. En el contexto de embarazo y lactancia, no se recomienda su consumo. Aunque los estudios de citotoxicidad en células de ratón (3T3) sugieren que las fracciones de la planta no son tóxicas en esos modelos específicos [PMID 26004727], esto no garantiza la seguridad en el desarrollo fetal humano. Los cambios en el metabolismo de la madre podrían transferirse al feto o al lactante, y la falta de estudios clínicos en humanos sobre el impacto en la embriogénesis o en la composición de la leche materna hace que el riesgo sea inaceptable. Para niños menores de 12 años, el uso está contraindicado. Los sistemas enzimáticos y de transporte de fármacos en pediatría son distintos a los de los adultos, y la inducción enzimática podría alterar el metabolismo de medicamentos esenciales para el desarrollo o tratamientos de enfermedades agudas.
