Question on mixing this Tea w/ Prozac

I really need someone to help me look into this. I went ahead and ordered the Metabolic boost AND the detox. It's a 28 day Cleanse. I'm going to call my doctor or a pharmacist tomorrow but I would like to know if any of you have ever done a "cleanse" or whatever on an A/D?



Ingredients for the Metabolic Boost: (Organic Yerba Mate, Sechung Oolong Tea, Organic Pinhead Gunpowder Tea, Organic Angelica Root Powder, Organic Sarsaparilla Root Powder, Guarana Seed Powder, Organic Alfalfa Leaf Cut , Organic Licorice Root cut and Organic Stevia)


Ingredients for the Detox: (Organic Dandelion Root, Peppermint Loose Leaf Tea, Organic Rosemary Leaf, Organic Senna Leaf Powder, Organic Motherworth Herb, Organic Cinnamon Powder, Organic Black Pepper, Organic Ginger Root, Organic Hibiscus Flower Powder, Organic Nettle Leaf Cut, Organic Rhubarb Root Powder, Organic Blessed Thistle Herb, Organic Lemongrass Leaf and Organic Grapefruit Peel)

I would ask the doctor and even run it by the pharmacy.

I don't think it's the cleansing part that would have me concerned but whenever I read words like "boost" in it, I'm concerned about various stimulants in them, or certain herbs that *can* potentially interact with some medications.

There are certainly products that do not, but it'll come down to the ingredients and if *they* specifically (even one of them) can interact.

May I ask? What are you hoping to accomplish with this tea? If it's "metabolic boost" and has any type of ephedrine or caffeine in it, you could find yourself in a not too pleasant place.

I also drink tea.

The concern I have is over any product, tea or other form, with claims about "boosting your metabolism" and such.

May I inquire why you would want to take this product?

Generally the ingredients in these "boost" type products contain ephedra and/or caffeine and they can not only spiral symptoms of anxiety and panic, but they can be downright dangerous, even lethal.

I express this not to alarm, but rather for information purposes encouraging research, education, and FDA approval.

Now I'm worried. I quit drinking this stuff a couple of days ago. But I've been pretty dizzy and pains in my head. :( .... I definitely won't be doing this again

I totally agree with Merrida, even if it is herbal doesn't mean it will mesh with your medication, a Pharmacist could tell you right away if there is any issues with taking the medication with an herbal supplement.

My daughter has been taking Garcinia cambogia and has lost quite a bit of weight, and wanted me to take it, but I refuse, not only does it make her panicky, whether if it is from the caffeine or the stimulants, but I have taken herbal supplements that made my chest hurt and made me dizzy headed, so If I even consider adding anything new to what I am taking, I run it by my doctor.

I do have issues with sleeping sometimes, and my doctor said I could take Melatonin to help me, I still have the unopened bottle on my dresser.
