====Herbal==== The [[American College of Rheumatology]] states that no herbal medicines have health claims supported by high-quality evidence and thus they do not recommend their use.<ref name=ACRCAM/> There is no scientific basis to suggest that herbal supplements advertised as "natural" are safer for use than conventional medications as both are chemicals. Herbal medications, although labelled "natural", may be toxic or fatal if consumed.<ref name=ACRCAM>{{cite web|title=Herbal Remedies, Supplements and Acupuncture for Arthritis|url=http://www.rheumatology.org/Practice/Clinical/Patients/Diseases_And_Conditions/Herbal_Remedies,_Supplements_and_Acupuncture_for_Arthritis/|publisher=American College of Rheumatology|access-date=May 3, 2013|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130505001915/http://www.rheumatology.org/Practice/Clinical/Patients/Diseases_And_Conditions/Herbal_Remedies,_Supplements_and_Acupuncture_for_Arthritis/|archive-date=May 5, 2013}}</ref> Due to the false belief that herbal supplements are always safe, there is sometimes a hesitancy to report their use which may increase the risk of adverse reactions.<ref name=Ef2010/>
