Question
Is it okay to take Remeron 15 mg (mirtazapine) with an herbal supplement that contains the following:
L-Theanine 200 mg
5-Hydoxytrytophan 50 mg
Magnolia bark extract 30 mg
A Propietary Blend of Panax Ginseng root extract (5% ginsenosides)cordyceps extract, wild jujube seed extract, ashwagandha root extract, and rhodiola root extract the blend is 300 mg
Dear Judy
There are no reported interactions but there could possibly be a theoretical one with the hydroxytryptophan. If yopu take this and feel slight nausea, low grade fever I would not continue with this supplement. As I said it is a possibility but unlikely.
Regards
Alan Galbraith
