Yes likely safe.: I am not aware of either of these herbal extracts interacting significantly with pharmaceuticals. GB I believe can inhibit platelets so probably best to avoid with a blood thinner. It appears you are dealing with some anxiety. Try and find a doc you can talk openly with and respects your interest in non pharmaceutical support.
