Erbe, alimenti e farmaci: Tra sinergie e interazioni (EPUB)

Understanding the Risks of Herbal and Drug Interactions

By Fabio Firenzuoli

The scientific community has been raising awareness about the risks of interactions between herbs and drugs over the past two decades. This issue has been addressed through scientific reports, public awareness campaigns, and regulatory measures. Fortunately, today there is a greater understanding of this phenomenon, leading to increased caution and attention.

Interactions Between Herbs, Spices, Supplements, and Medications

Herbs, spices, dietary supplements, and foods often interact with each other and with medications, altering their metabolism, efficacy, or safety. Ignorance or self-treatment can lead to unforeseen side effects, which can be severe and dangerous. However, many herbs are safe and effective when used judiciously and in conjunction with medications, potentially reducing the risk of adverse reactions and interactions.

The Goal of the Text

The primary objective of this text is to minimize the risks of intolerance, side effects, and interactions, avoiding potential conflicts and promoting opportunities for synergy. This is achieved through the introduction of the chromatic risk balance (BCR), a clear and immediate system for visualizing the clinical risk or benefit for individual herbs or substances, categorized by patient groups. Each entry includes interactions and synergies supported by clinical evidence, distinguished from theoretical risks, along with necessary precautions.
