How Herb-Drug Interaction Consultation Works
Dr. Hendry reviews your complete medication list — including all prescription drugs, OTC medications, and current supplements — against the herbal formula or supplements under consideration. He uses current herb-drug interaction databases, CYP enzyme pathway analysis (for cytochrome P450-mediated interactions), and his clinical experience to assess risk. He then either prescribes safely or recommends alternatives that avoid the interaction.
