I've read that St. John's Wort (hypericum) works in ways similar to an MAOI and may have some of the same interactions as an MAOI and other meds and some of the eating restrictions may apply if you take SJW.
Unfortunately, I don't recall where I read this. It was a while back.

> I've decided to build a web site which has info on the interactions and possible problems which can arise between prescription meds and the little known herbal remedies. I reckon people on prescription meds want to know which herbals are safe with what prescription meds - any wisdom, experience or knowledge of existing sources of this info would be appreciated.
