BLACKMORES Institute has
produced a comprehensive
reference guide to provide health
professionals easy access to
information about interactions
between complementary medicines
(CMs) and drugs.
The guide is only available to
Blackmores Institute site members.
Some complementary
medicines may interact with
certain medications to reduce, or
sometimes increase, the efficacy
of one or the other, or to cause
potentially harmful effects, the
Institute says.
The interaction information is
divided into five sections with each
section ordered alphabetically in
the Guide.
Each interaction has been
categorised according to the risk
and severity of the interaction and
the quality of evidence supporting
it, said Blackmores Institute.The above article was sent to subscribers in Pharmacy Daily's issue from 04 Mar 16 To see the full newsletter, see the embedded issue below or CLICK HERE to download Pharmacy Daily from 04 Mar 16
