Holy Basil Tea: This is a popular ayurvedic remedy from india, used to treat asthma, diabetes, high cholesterol, arthritis. It has eugenol oil which has analgesic & antiseptic properties. Caution using it with medications that can affect liver or blood thinners. I am not aware of adverse interactions with prozac, (fluoxetine) as long as it is not consumed in excess.
