I am seeing an herbalist doctor for my anxiety and panic attacks. I am on prescription xanax xr 1 mg threesome times a day. And I verify 30 mg remeron at night. But my herbalist told me to stick with my prescription meds and add the herbs. I am taking Bio-B 100(special B-complex verify 3 pills four times a day), De-stress (1 pill threesome times a day), Seacure (fish lubricator vitamins) and Tallia (12 drops morning and 12 drops at night).I was just wondering if anyone has been to an herbalist and if it helped them with anxiety/panic?

And did this herbalist student advise or warn you of drug interactions? You should not be taking whatever herbal drugs without conversation to your proper student first! Sound advice from the Mayo Clinic: "When considering an alternative penalization treatment, be a savvy consumer. Be open-minded yet skeptical. Learn most the potential benefits and risks. Gather aggregation from a variety of sources and appraise the aggregation carefully. Assess the credentials of alternative penalization practitioners. And be sure to talk with your customary student before trying whatever communication — especially if you verify medications or have habitual upbeat problems." "Evaluate fare supplements: 'Natural' doesn't always mean innocuous - Herbal remedies, vitamins and minerals, thoughtful fare supplements by the Food and Drug Administration, don't undergo the same rigorous testing and regulation as over-the-counter and prescription medications. For example, manufacturers aren't required to get FDA support before producing or commerce fare supplements. Yet, whatever of these substances — including products labeled as "natural" — have drug-like effects that crapper be dangerous. Even whatever vitamins and minerals crapper cause problems when condemned in unrestrained amounts. So it's important to do your homework and analyse potential benefits and side effects of fare supplements. Play it innocuous with these tips: Talk to your student before taking a fare supplement. This is especially important if you are pregnant, nursing a baby, or if you have a habitual scrutiny condition such as diabetes or heart disease. Avoid drug interactions. Prescription and over-the-counter medications crapper interact with certain fare supplements. For example, the anticoagulant Coumadin (a prescription medication), ginkgo (an herbal supplement) and Vitamin E crapper every thin the blood. Taking these products together crapper increase your risk of internal injury or other problems." http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/alternative-medicine/SA00078

Your 'herbalist doctor' is NOT a actual doctor! They do NOT know what the effects of mixing with prescription meds is and probable couldn't tending inferior as long as they get your money. Dump the herbal stuff in the trash and stay away from this play doctor.
