Title: Another Kudzu Question
Post by kimmeesue on Apr 1^st, 2005, 12:39pm

I have read the other threads and haven't seen my specific ?? addressed. I presently take topamax...can I take the Kudzu as an adjunct to this? And has anyone had a favorable response from their neuro to use of this herb? Just anticipating a favorable outcome with the kudzu and wanting to get off the pill roller coaster. Also, can someone explain how Kudzu affects seratonin? I use Paxil and had another drug throw me into seratonin syndrome which almost did me in. Now when I see a reference to seratonin I get concerned. I am anxious to try the Kudzu and can't get in to see my neuro for a couple of weeks. Any thoughts appreciated.

You know, Kimmie...we just don't know yet. This is still so new. I take Neurontin (similar to Topamax) and it's OK. May I suggest you print out the technical/medical info on the kudzu thread and bring it to your doctor or pharmacist. They certainly would have a better idea than any of us, I think. Good luck and pain free wishes, nani
