Sida acuta side effects

by | May 25, 2012 | Columns, digestive upset, Healing Lyme, Herb Reactions, Herbs, miscellaneous, other | 6 comments

Dear Stephen,
Does Sida acuta have any side effects, such as loose bowels? I have just started using Sida acuta for hip pain. It seems to help where the doxycycline did not. I had to stop artemesinin due to elevated liver enzymes. THANKS – your information is invaluable!


Stephen’s response:
It can cause loose bowels, though it is rarish. The main general side effect (NOT in the literature) seems to be tiredness. If that occurs just halve the dose and see how it goes.

“This protocol was incredible. After only a few weeks most of my symptoms were gone. After six months all my symptoms were gone… it has given me my life back.”

    Sida Acuta caused severe insomnia for me. I had to stop it. I know it is cause of it, I stopped just that, and I could sleep again, 11 hours a night.

    Very curious if low blood sugar is an issue for others on Sida Acuta, and if, so what can be done about this. It can tell Sida is working (better than anything else I’ve tried), but the hypoglycemia is problematic and I can’t take very much before it kicks in.
