St. John’s worth

St. John’s worth is a herbal supplement used for battling sleep disorders and to ease mild anxiety and depression. However, if you’re already taking another type of medication for depression or anxiety, we recommend you avoid this supplement.

It has been discovered that St. John’s worth is badly interacting with many common drugs or it weakens their effects. Whether we’re talking about antidepressants, birth control pills, cyclosporine, digoxin (a heart drug), HIV drugs or cancer medications, it can be quite dangerous to mix them with this supplement.

You may have a dangerous increase in serotonin levels, known as serotonin syndrome. So before deciding to add this supplement to your list, you better check with your doctor.
