Does anyone see an issue with taking Rhodiola Rosea and Saint John's Wort at the same time?

Question

The reason I was curious is because it is generally accepted that you cannot mix saint john's wort with other prescribed anti-depressant's. Rhodiola Rosea obviously has anti-depressant qualities, but I think the main issue with mixing Saint Johns Wort with other 'ssri' anti-depressants is more based on the SSRI over-dose possibility. What is your rationale?

Answer 1

You will be fine with this combo. of course, always taken with the standard suggested dose. The combo will improve your mood and bring mental clarity.  It's also good for the nerves.
