St. John's wort, an unregulated herbal supplement widely used as a self-treatment for depression, can cause side effects and drug interactions. Physicians should ask their patients about use of over-the-counter products such as St. John's wort and discuss their use in a frank but nonjudgmental manner.
圣约翰草,一种未受监管的草药补充剂,被广泛用作抑郁症的自我治疗药物,可能会引起副作用和药物相互作用。医生应该询问他们的患者是否使用过非处方产品,如圣约翰草,并以坦诚但无偏见的方式讨论其使用情况。
