hello scooter,
I have no experience with SJW (Saint Johns Wort) but I wanted to welcome you to Psycho-Babble. I would hope that the doctor knows what he's doing when he asked you to continue taking the SJW. A tip for psycho-babbling, change the subject line to include your specifics to increase the odds of getting a response to your post, or start a new post.
Good luck!
KDi in Texas> Hello everyone, I have been monitoring this site for a few days now. I was recently put on effexor xr for anxiety. Right now I am on 37.5mg been on it almost 7 days now. Side effects are there but o'kay. My doc also wants me to continue taken ST. Johns Wort for a little while til I get on board with the Effexor. I am taking 300mg of SJW. Has anyone done this before? All I read about is how its dangerous to mix seratonin drugs? I have talked to pharmacists and they seem to think its o'kay for a short while. Please advise? I have currently cut back to 150mg of SJW to possibly lower the SE affects of the Effexor. I need some encouragment, Please?
