Question

Is there a web site for looking up vitamins to see if they can be taken with my prescription? ?

Answer 1

Call your pharmacist. You also should have been given a sheet detailing all of the drugs interaction precautions, including whether or not there are vitamins you can't take along with it.  Vitamins are usually not a problem, though calcium can interfere with absorption of some antibiotics or other drugs.  There are other minerals and especially herbal supplements that can interfere with or react seriously with some prescription drugs.  Your pharmacist will be able to determine this.

You can also call your local pharmacy and ask them.

Answer 3

I would not trust a website.

Even if you found a great site, it could have an error or you could make a mistake on looking at the information.

Your pharmacist has a RedBook that has all the interactions. It even has the latest updates on how herbal and natural remedies can effect the meds you take.

This needs to be looked at by a professional. Your health is not worth taking chances on.
