3. Indications and Uses

Common uses for ginseng extract include improving mental acuity, easing stress, boosting the immune system and reducing the risk of cancer. The U.S. National Library of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health give ginseng a "B" grade for its antioxidant effect in treating heart conditions, its ability to enhance the responsiveness of the immune system, and its effect lowering blood sugar in people with type-2 diabetes. Many people use ginseng extract as an energy booster, though "Nature's Medicines" notes that the herb is not a stimulant. The benefits of ginseng extract may seem enticing, but more rigorous testing is needed to confirm its efficacy.

4. Safety Concerns

A common side effect of P. ginseng may be insomnia, but this effect is disputed. Other side effects can include nausea, diarrhea, headaches, nose bleeds, high blood pressure, low blood pressure, and breast pain. Ginseng may also lead to induction of mania in depressed patients who mix it with antidepressants. Ginseng has been shown to have adverse drug reactions with phenelzine and warfarin, but has been shown to decrease blood alcohol levels. Ginseng extract may cause nosebleeds, headaches, vomiting, elevated blood pressure, anxiety and insomnia. UMMC warns that women who are pregnant, breastfeeding or at high risk for breast cancer should avoid ginseng. The extract may negatively interact with diabetes medications, blood thinners, antidepressants and antipyschotic medications. In addition, people on certain types of ADHD medications, such as amphetamines or methylphenidate, should avoid ginseng because it may enhance the stimulant effect of these drugs and increase their side effects.

5. Dosage Information

For general support, the suggested dosage typically entails 200 mg of an extract standardized to contain 4 percent to 7 percent ginsenosides, the primary active components in Panax ginseng. If consuming the herb raw, the suggested dosage ranges from 1 g to 2 g daily.
