Is it safe to take nutriceuticals/herbal treatments/supplements while on antidepressants?
Recent studies have suggested that some herbal treatments, such as St. John’s Wort, may interfere with the positive actions of other prescribed medications. These types of treatments are also not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), so product ingredients can differ from brand to brand. It is therefore advisable to speak to your doctor if you are taking any herbal treatments, so that you and your doctor can come to the best decision about your care.
