The combination should not cause any problems, (THIS IS AN EDIT: Actually, taking the two in combination will cause problems as they both do effect chemicals in the brain. I recently talked to a pharmacist about this combination and was warned that it could be exceedingly dangerous. There is also numerous studies done that have verified the danger.) but I would advise against taking Venlafaxine Hydrochloride (Effexor) as the side effects reveal that it may not only increase your depression, but cause a whole host of other problems too. The drug is designed to change the chemicals in your brain, and balance them out; but what if that went wrong? Most pills are not altering the brain - I would not trust one that did.
Side Effects:
I would not trust a pill or a doctor with my life, except in emergency situations. You should not either. If you continue to take Effexor, then you must avoid all alcohol, as the combination can be fatal. Take care of yourself. Click on my username and send me a message, and I will recommend some herbal treatments for depression which have worked for both me and people that I know.
(ANOTHER EDIT: Please do talk with a doctor if you believe you need one or both of these. They have been professionally trained to help diagnose and treat these kinds of things. Herbs are considered medicinal too and should be treated with as much caution as drugs as they can both interact and cause desirable/undesirable side effects. As for side effects...well, everything has side effects, even water. That is why it is best to talk with a doctor.)
an you take st johns wort with zopoclone
is it safe to take st johns wort with morphine
Probably not a good idea. St. Johns Wort can decrease the effectiveness of the pill, if you need that medication, take it, but use a back- up method meanwhile
no if you do you will die and you wont go to heaven
St. John's Wort in Tagalog is called "Gamot-gamotan."
Yes, you can, but should you? The method by which the chemicals in either one work isn't clear. But both act to relieve depression. Effexor (Venlafaxine) is a very powerful pharmaceutical. If you have been prescribed Effexor, it would be best to ask you prescribing physician if you can take St. John's wort. Use the link to a related question about taking Lexapro and St. John's wort to read that answer. You'll find that link below.
Good question one Ive asked myself because ive recently started using SAM-e and st johns wort, I take st johns wort at night to help me sleep along with chiniese herbs, But lately I just havent been myself , Its possible that mixing them isnt a good idea.
AnswerOf course you can take St Johns Wort alone, and you will still see some improvements. 5-HTP is a naturally occurring amino acid and would help to intensify the results of the St Johns, but is not compulsory. Try out the St Johns and see how effective it is. If you do not see any effects - then you may want to add 5-HTP. As with all herbs, results very dramatically from person to person.
