Asarca gayana can have side effects if used improperly, such as gastrointestinal problems, including nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, due to its high levels of toxic compounds like cardenolides and bufadienolides.
Prolonged use or excessive consumption of the plant can also lead to cardiac issues, such as irregular heartbeat, palpitations, and even cardiac arrest.
