Herbal supplements interactions with anticonvulstants/antidepressants?

sunshinyorange asked:


I’ve called a few different pharmacies and the pharmacists treat me like a crazy person when I ask this, lol.

My question is: I currently take 200 mg. of Lamictal every day. My husband and I are currently trying to have a baby (my neuro. knows about this, and he’s given me the all clear with Lamictal). I recently purchased an herbal supplement called “FertilAid.” It’s basically a multivitamin that also contains red clover, vitex agnus castus, ginseng and ginko biloba. Does ANYONE know if any of these herbs interaction with Lamictal?

Floating through life?

phrenitus asked:


I constantly feel like I am just going through the motions in life. I always forget to do little things like help around the house, everyday tasks like shaving, remembering things to take with me… it’s crazy. Why am I such a space case?? It seems like I cant focus on anything and it drives me nuts. It affects alot of the facets of my life. I take Ginseng, Ginko Biloba- none of it helps. I can be staring right at something and forget what I was doing. Does anyone have any helpful insight as to what the heck is going on with my focus?? I want to be able to address the important things in my life and stop taking every day for granted!! I’m really tired of floating aimlessly through each day!!
I have started going to therapy- I have been diagnozed with Depression and Anxiety. But I can’t begin to say how frustrated I get with myself because I never seem to be able to focus enough to be there for people I care about. It makes it very hard to climb out of this hole. I go once a month to therapy- I just don’t know what the hell to do to be there for the people I love.

It doesn’t have any oil or wax in it, but it does have green tea, ginseng and grape seed extracts. Can these ingredients cause acne?
