The following is taken from a reputable web site but please do your own investigation:
Raspberry leaves may be helpful for diarrhea or as a mouthwash because of their astringent action. They have been used historically in painful or profuse menstruation and in regulating labor pains during childbirth, but there is little evidence to support this use.
Infusion (like a tea) - Pour near-boiling water over the herb and let steep 5-10 minutes. Standard quantities are 75g fresh or 30g dried herb to 500ml water. The Infusion must be taken same day. It may be sweetened, but do not add milk. This is the best method for leaves.
Used for treating Sore Throats, Diarrhea, Stomach Cramps, as a gargle for Mouth and Gum Ulcers, and to reduce excessive Menstrual bleeding or bleeding during childbirth.
Raspberry leaf may cause mild loosening of stools and nausea. Otherwise, use of the herb appears to be safe.
As a tea use 2-3 tsp of dried or chopped leaves in 5 -8oz of boiling water for 5 min, discarding solid particles. Take as needed. Topically use tea on skin. Orally as a mouth wash use tea dosage.
