Increasingly, patients seeking acupuncture and herbal care may already be on a variety of western pharmaceuticals. It is essential that acupuncturists understand the fundamentals of possible herb-drug interactions prior to prescribing any herbal formulas for patients who are already taking western medications. Unexpected side effects from herb-drug interactions are a real and often devastating possibility. Ensure the safety of your patients and your practice with an understanding of possible herb-drug interactions.

Comments

Dr. Chen provided an excellent course--very comprehensive, a lot of relevant information, fantastic, well-organized and well-constructed presentation. I will definitely be attending future Dr. Chen courses.

John Chen is just fantastic in delivering information that makes the use of these formulas come alive. He gives a balanced understanding from both a TCM and western perspective.

I always learn so much from Dr. Chen. He is extremely knowledgeable in TCM and Western Pharmacology which is so important. I could watch the same lecture 100 times and still pick up important information every time that I missed the time before!

Dr. Chen is knowledgeable, organized, and an excellent presenter. His presentation was easy to follow and the material will be easy for me to use in clinical practice.

Dr. Chen is amazing in his knowledge of Chinese herbs and how they compare, work with, and contraindicated with pharmaceuticals.

He often use metaphors, stores and research to bring his information to life, thank you.

A very interesting and lively class for me. I learned a lot today about what and why things work and how to proceed with caution with certain western medicines, especially blood thinners!
