Have you ever used a standard over the shelf painkiller (paracetamol)?

Are you aware that the side effects of those are listed as skin rashes, blood disorders, acute inflammation of the pancreas and extreme liver damage?

Let me put it this way, I have been drinking ginseng tea for many years and have never ever experienced any bad effects, only good effects. Same goes for all the times I've smoked it.

Also, one last word of advice; take everything on wikipedia with a pinch of salt. It is a good resource, but it's not perfect.
