Abstract
Aloe vera is a cactus-like plant belonging to the Lily family, extracts of which are used topically for skin care, orally as a laxative and as a component of many herbal mixtures claimed to have medicinal benefits. Oral forms of aloe vera have been linked to rare instances of clinically apparent liver injury.
