Easy-to-understand materials
to help you educate patients about potential herbal & dietary supplement
interactions
Increased use of herbals and dietary supplements means increased
risk of harmful interactions. Without knowledge of the possibilities,
inadvertent mixing of medications can result in adverse drug events
or decreased efficacy. AltMed-REAX for the Patient discusses
the potential for interactions between alternative medicines and
other drugs, dietary supplements, food, alcohol, and tobacco. Designed
to help educate patients, supporting evidence and advice about what
to do if experiencing an interaction are included.
