==Special Precautions of Fritillaria==
* Many Chinese pharmacies may be found selling unprocessed fritillaria and this substance should never ever be used internally. As the use of medications prepared with fritillaria encourages the contractions of the uterus, it should not be used in any form during pregnancy. In addition, people enduring high blood pressures should never take any medication prepared with fritillaria.
* Recent researches have revealed that the herb works much in the same manner as the drug dexamethasone - Cortastat, Dexasone, Decadron and the like, that are used by modern allopathic medical practitioners to cure nasal allergy as well as inflammation.
* In addition, the herb has been found to be very effective in treating lupus.
