  46. General Conclusions Plant derived drugs have an important place in both traditional and modern medicine Concerning therapy with phytomedicines, a clear distinction has to be made between its possibilities and limits The consumer has to be protected from inefficient and dangerous drugs or from those with fantastic claims of indications Both; users and practitioners should be enabled to make the best benefit – risk assessment before using any herbal medicine Despite tested for generations; safety and efficacy of herbal medicines should be confirmed scientifically Natural Products 2016, Melbourne, Australia - July 25-27th, 2016
