May have a detox effect

A newer study is looking at the influence of Gotu kola on the liver and renal damage. According to one animal study published in 2017, Gotu kola can be utilized to reduce the harmful side effects of the antibiotic isoniazid. Isoniazid is a drug that is used to treat and prevent TB.

Before receiving the antibiotic, rats were given 100 mg of Gotu kola for 30 days. Overall, the toxicity was lower in these rats. After being fed Gotu kola, rats that had had liver and kidney damage returned to near-normal levels. Take 30 to 60 drops of liquid Gotu kola extract three times each day for up to 14 days. Dosages may differ between manufacturers, so always read and follow the label.
