Topamax and Bach flower remedies

Tue, 04/28/2009 - 13:48

Hi

I would like to start taking the Bach flower remedies, but I was wondering about the interaction with Topamax (200mg daily), since these remedies contain some alcohol. 

thanks

Well, my experience with the Bach flower remedies is that you just take a few drops at a time.  You can definetly tell that there is alcohol in it, but I wouldn't think that just a few drops a day would be a problem.  However, the usual disclaimer is probably advised, that you talk with your doctor first (let him/her know that the dose of the remedy is only drops a day).

Good luck with the remedies.
