Holy Basil Interactions with Herbs and Drugs Answered by: Susan Eagles Question from: Kathy Posted on: November 02, 2004
Holy basil was recommended to me for sluggish adrenals and help with menopause. Do you know of any warnings about mixing this with any other herbs or medications?
There are unlikely to be undesired interactions with other herbs or drugs. Holy basil has anti-depressant, mild sedative and adrenal stimulant actions. If you are taking drugs with a sedative action (antidepressants for example), there is a potential for increased sedation.
