Is st.johns wort safe to take for anxiety and mild depression?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can be: St. Johns wort can be safe & effective for mild to moderate depression, with anxiety. In fact it's often prescribed in germany for this purpose. Please talk with your physicians first, since it can interact with some medications like prozac (fluoxetine). You probably would not want to take both at the same time.
