Yep, and here is another herb called golden root - it is really important
when counseling women to find out the latin name of the herb as there are so
many common names that overlap.

Subject: Re: echinacea and golden root
Are you perhaps looking for Goldenseal?. Hydrastis canadensis L- which is
often combined with echinacea and propolis in cold/flu preps and is
generally NOT recommended during pregnancy but not clearly defined for
(early) lactation although the midwifery practice I work with uses it
topically for cord care. More here:
http://altmedicine.about.com/cs/herbsvitaminsek/a/Goldenseal.htm
Golden root, aka Oregon graperoot- Berberis aquifolium, B. nervosa, Mahonia
spp.
as Katie pointed out is a more palatable alternative, but not the same herb
as golden seal root. Both taste and smell similar and contain berberine.
