Herbal extracts can interact with conventional medicines; the following guidance reflects current knowledge.

Avoid

• Concurrent use with potent bronchodilators or cough suppressants without professional advice, as additive effects on airway tone may occur.
• Combining with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs if a hypersensitivity reaction leads to systemic inflammation.
• Use with monoamine‑oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) in the absence of clinical supervision.

Use with caution

• When taking other herbal products containing ivy or similar constituents.
• In patients receiving diuretics, as fluid balance may be modestly affected.
• With medications that have a narrow therapeutic index, monitor for any change in clinical response.
