Herb/Drug - Warfarin
Can I use Echinacea whilst taking Warfarin?The Herbalist writes...
We advise all patients on warfarin to be treated by a qualified medical herbalist rather than self-treating with herbs, as there are many herbs with a known or potential interaction with warfarin. Echinacea is not known to interact with warfarin, but we would still advise you to discuss with your GP and ensure regular blood tests whilst taking the Echinacea.
You can find a qualified herbalist by visiting the National Institute of Medical Herbalists' website at http://www.nimh.org.uk . It can be very cost effective to use a qualified herbalist who can tailor a prescription to your specific needs and provide valuable life-style and dietary advice.
