Can I safely take the Ayurvedic medicines Brahmi vati, Aamalki rasayan, and Sarastwarisht alongside my prescribed psychiatric medications, Oleanz Forte and Oleanz Plus (olanzapine and fluoxetine), which I take for anxiety, depression, constant headaches, an uneven heartbeat, and severe mental health symptoms?
I understand you are managing very challenging symptoms like anxiety, headaches, and an uneven heartbeat. While Ayurvedic remedies like Brahmi vati, Aamalki rasayan, and Saraswatarishta are traditional, combining them with your prescribed medications, Oleanz Forte and Oleanz Plus (olanzapine and fluoxetine), carries risks. These herbs can interact with your psychiatric medications, potentially worsening your uneven heartbeat or causing excessive drowsiness. Your safety is the priority. Please consult your psychiatrist before starting any herbal supplements, as they can safely guide your treatment plan and address your headaches and heartbeat concerns.
