drinking “herbal teas” mistak

plants have been reported to the
national Center for Disease

infants in Arizona who were
given large quantities of a tea

was made from a toxic herb by
mistake.
This tea sometimes is used as
a gargle and cough medicine,

month-old girl, was admitted to
a Tucson hospital in July for
