In reply to Zoloft and Kava interactions?, posted by Areila on June 26, 2001, at 22:38:05
I have had no problems with kava along with Celexa. Kava works very well. It only takes 30 minutes to kick in. It has a full effect in a couple of weeks.

I've read all I can about it, and I haven't seen any concrete information about this exact drug interaction. As long as there is no negative effect, I would like to try Kava to see if it alleviates my anxiety.
