Coltsfoot is an herb made from the aerial parts of the plant, which are used to prepare an infusion. It acts on the respiratory system and throat, and contains mucilage with a soothing effect on the mucous membranes.
To prepare the infusion, pour a cup of boiling water over one teaspoon of coltsfoot in a covered container. Leave to steep for 5–10 minutes, then strain. Excessive or long-term use may cause toxicity due to the pyrrolizidine alkaloids it contains. It is contraindicated for pregnant or breastfeeding women and people with liver problems.
