Feverfew and triptans?
Hi, I want to come off amitriptyline because they were making me like a zombie (I'm down to 10mg from 30, so far so good) I also have zolmitriptan for when they do happen, which I have been taking if necessary alongside the amitriptyline as prescribed. My question is, can I safely take a regular dose of Feverfew AND safely take my 2.5mg of zolmitriptan? I can find absolutely nothing online about this, does anyone have any advice?
Hi triptanzan,
Great question! The thing is that's a question for your doctor and/or pharmacist. They know what other medications/supplements you take, and therefore can make the correct suggestions.
Good luck and keep us posted!
