Ingen bivirkninger og ingen afhængighed
- dog vigtigt at understrege at perikon ikke må anvendes sammen med f.eks hjertemedicin,
da den ændrer halveringstiden af hjertemedicinen.
Det er helt forkert, perikon HAR bivirkninger... Den virker sjovt nok som en SSRI fordi den ER en SSRI, og kan derfor have nogen af de samme bivirkninger:
Citat:
Are there any side-effects or risks when taking St John's wort?
Some people think that because St John's wort is 'natural' then it is totally safe. This is not true as it contains many chemicals which sometimes cause problems.
Possible side-effects
The most common side-effects are dry mouth, dizziness, gut symptoms, increased sensitivity to sunlight, and tiredness.
Possible risks
St John's wort sometimes reacts with other drugs. So:
* You should not take it if you are taking warfarin, cyclosporin, oral contraceptives, anticonvulsants, digoxin, theophylline, or certain anti-HIV drugs. This is because it may reduce the effect of these drugs.
* You should not take it at the same time as taking an SSRI antidepressant (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) or a triptan drugs used for migraine (such as sumatriptan). This is because it has an additive effect to these drugs which can cause problems.
Also, you should not take St John's wort if you are pregnant or breastfeeding as it has not been proved to be safe in these situations.
Nu er det nok ikke så relevant for kbhfyren da jeg antager at han er en fyr, men for andre er det ret vigtigt at huske at
hvis man tager p-piller sammen med perikon er der en reel risiko for at de ikke vil virke!
