Her er et udtræk på engelsk:

CONTRAINDICATIONS
Stenosis of the gastrointestinal tract, ileus, diabetes mellitus where
insulin adjustment is difficult, abdominal pains, fecal impaction,
esophageal stenosis.
DRUG INTERACTIONS
Persons with insulin-dependant diabetes may require less insulin.
Consume psyllium one hour after consumption of other drugs. The enteral
absorption of other drugs taken simultaneously may be affected. When
taken simultaneously, bulk-forming laxatives may inhibit the absorption
of other drugs (e.g. aspirin, cardiac glycosides, antibiotics,
anticoagulants, etc.) and dietry nutrients (e.g. calcium, iron, zinc,
sodium, potassium, etc.) May antagonize antidiarrheal drugs. Due to the
antihypertensive (hypotensive) action of this herb the following
interactions are possible: when taken with anesthetics an increased
hypotensive effect; potentation of antihypertensives; when taken with
diuretics difficulty with diuresis and hypertension may result;
antagonism of sympathomimetics.
SIDE EFFECTS
(Possible adverse effects and/or overdose effects) Allergic reactions,
occasional flatulence (tympanites), rare cases of hypersensitivity and
anaphlylaxis.
WARNING
The seeds should not be ground or chewed, since they release a pigment
that deposits in renal tubules. Diabetes requiring insulin may need to
reduce the dose insulin. If diarrhea persists for more than 3-4 days, a
doctor should be consulted. Do not exceed 8-10 days of treatment.
Phytobezoars (food-ball that forms blocking the GI tract) may form if
not taken with enough liquid. Due to the bulkforming fibers and mucilage
found in this material, ingesting it without adequate fluid may cause it
to swell, blocking the esophagus, and cause choking. This material
should be administered with at least 8 ounces of water or other fluid
(taken without enough fluid may cause choking).
