Kathy547 said:I finally got one of my most wanted herb books. Its written by Chris D. Meletis, N.D. Natural Health Magazine "Complete guide to Safe herbs". There's a section on What herbs are safe and unsafe to take with certain medications. For example, my husband takes tramadol, Which is a non- narcotic pain reliever prescribed to relieve moderate to severe pain. Can't mix with St. John's Wort because they both reduce the uptake of serotonin. There is a list of safe herbs for children & Potentially dangerous herbs for children. Safe and potentially dangerous herbs for older adults. There is even an index of safe herbs by condition (Alzheimer's to yeast infections).


I just found a copy of the book on Amazon for $4 (.01+$3.99 shipping)! I've been looking for a reference for herb interactions with medicines. Thank you so much for posting!
