An extensive search of all standard references, as well as reports of studies in humans, shows that there have been no case reports of toxic exposure to V. agnus-castus use. However, one case of nocturnal seizures, possibly attributed to V. agnus-castus, has been reported. The patient was taking concomitantly black cohosh root (Cimicifuga racemosa), V. agnus-castus, and evening primrose as well (34). Thus, attribution of effect to a specific agent was not possible.
