This reference guide to interactions between drugs and the most common herbs and nutritional supplements provides critical information to medical professionals and consumers, allowing physicians to more safely prescribe drugs while considering the potential interactions with other substances that an individual may be taking. Organized in sections by herb and by supplement, there is also an extensive cross-reference guide by drug and drug category.
