%X SUMMARY MESSAGE: There is evidence that Devil&#x92;s Claw can be an effective short-term treatment for acute exacerbations of low back pain and, to a lesser extent, in rheumatic and osteoarthritic conditions. Acute adverse effects reported in clinical trials were mild diarrhoea and flatulence. Long-term adverse effects have not been studied. As with all herbal medicines, Devil&#x92;s Claw products differ in their pharmaceutical quality, and the implications of this for efficacy and safety should be considered.
