"Vervain should not be used regularly or in significant quantities without medical advice"

I've read plenty of articles about Vervain and none contain any warning about not using the plant regularly. I've been taking the infusion pretty much daily for years; if there are any risks, I would like to see them sourced properly. User:Anchorite1 12:18, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

I removed the tea recipes as they seemed inappropriate. Discussion of herbal remedies is fine, but the old discussion was more cookbook that encyclopedia. Iellwood 23:15, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Following general Wikipedia usage, this should be a redirect to Verbena (genus), instead of the other way round. Any objections? --Wetman 00:09, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

Agreed, except that I'd move it to Verbena, with the current content of that page moved to Verbena (disambiguation) as its contents are minor compared to the plant genus (and mostly derivative from it) - MPF 12:09, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
