Children: Huperzine A is POSSIBLY SAFE in children when taken by mouth for a short period of time (less than one month).

Slow heart rate or other heart diseases: Huperzine A can slow the heart rate. This might be a problem for people who already have a slow heart rate or other heart conditions involving the heart rate. If you have heart disease, use huperzine A cautiously.
