Welcome to module 9 as we balance the art of integrating pharmaceuticals with herbs and supplements!
This session will review common drug-herb interactions and identify drug-herb interactions that are clinically important for dermatologic patients.
In dermatology, rarely is only one prescription written. Typically, two, three, or even more recommendations are made for a given problem with the idea that each will work together, if not synergistically, then at least additively. We explore these concepts and review the relevant literature in detail.
After completing this activity, participants will be able to:
Explore key features of the Natural Medicines Database (NMD) and how to optimize the educational content and resources for your professional advancement and patient care. Walk through cases using the NMD integration to elevate and utilize tools to safely implement integrative modalities into your practice. The NMD integration provides the largest database on natural medicine including monographs on botanicals and supplements with information on safety, efficacy, known interactions, side effects and more!
