EXTREMELY SAFE!!!: Pulsatilla, like almost all homeopathic remedies, is VERY safe. It's the extremely diluted essence of a wildflower; if there are any actual chemicals from the flower in the remedy it might be a few parts per trillion. A common critique of homeopathy is it's too dilute to have any effect,but it can help a lot.While steroids can be very helpful for many conditions they can have serious side effects.
