Sassafras has significant safety concerns associated with it. I'd do your homework or ask your doctor before using if I were you.
The oil which makes the plant poisonous is still present in tea preparations at several times the safe level even in those preparations which claim to have removed it. The oil is a known carcinogen and can cause liver damage in higher amounts. I am not sure a physician would permit a patient with a complex medical history to use it.
