Can I take over-the-counter products with my current meds?

Q: Can I take this over-the-counter (OTC) or herbal products with my current medications / medical conditions?

A: You should always ask your pharmacist before taking an OTC or herbal product. Just because one product works well for your neighbour or family member, it may not be the right choice for you.  Also, remember that the terms “natural” or “herbal” do not guarantee safety. Talk to your pharmacist before taking any new products.
