Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a substitute for medical advice?
No. This tool provides general educational information based on published research. It does not account for your individual health conditions, genetics, or all possible interactions. Always discuss supplement use with your prescribing provider, especially if you take psychiatric medications.
How accurate is this information?
All interactions are sourced from peer-reviewed research and include PubMed citation numbers (PMIDs). Evidence levels are clearly marked (Strong, Moderate, Limited, Theoretical). We focus on psychiatric medications and mental health-relevant supplements.
What does "contraindicated" mean?
Contraindicated means these items should NOT be taken together due to serious safety concerns. For example, 5-HTP with SSRIs can cause serotonin syndrome, a potentially life-threatening condition. If you see a contraindicated warning, consult your provider immediately.
What if my medication isn't listed?
Our database focuses on common psychiatric medications and frequently-used supplements. If your specific medication isn't listed, the general class may still apply (e.g., "SSRI" covers most selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors). For comprehensive checking, consult your pharmacist or provider.
Why focus on mental health medications?
General drug interaction checkers don't specialize in the unique concerns of psychiatric medications—particularly serotonin-related risks and beneficial augmentation strategies. We provide psychiatry-specific context that generic tools miss.
