I am trying to help a 19 year old with depression, she is also anorexic, do you think provigol or rhodiola rosea will help and can she take that with Zyprexa?

Hi there,
This is a link to another thread in the forum. https://www.healingwell.com/community/default.aspx?f=19&m=831192 You may find it useful since it is about Rhodiola Rosea.

Ummm Judy, I know your intentions are very well intended but Zyprexa is NOT a medication that you want to go giving her suggestions on what to take on top of...most especially, if she is having problems with anorexia and depression. Please use your considerable efforts to try to have her seek professional help with these matters.
As as side note here, Provigel is commonly used for the treatment of fatigue associated with Multiple Sclerosis and like disorders that cause extreme fatigue.

Elisha has made a very good point. Im sure you mean well, but advising other people on drug combinations is a very dangerous minefield. I must have misread the post when I first responded as I would have said something to you then. The best person to advise someone on drug combinations (Especially Anti-Psychotics) is a fully qualified doctor.
