Excerpt

Horsetail is an extract of the plant Equisetum arvense which has been used in traditional medicine for bladder and kidney conditions and to promote wound healing. Oral forms of horsetail have been implicated in instances of serum aminotransferase elevations, but it has not been convincingly linked to instances of clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice.
