I am not sure what you are going to take, or use this information for. 
But just a general warning, just like modern medicine interacts and some 
combinations are definitely not a good idea, herbal medicine can cause 
similar interactions. So be aware of that and get well informed. (And if 
you are on a steady diet of regular medication it is most certainly 
important to inform yourself). (perhaps totally superflouus post,  but 
better safe than sorry)

Rowena, full of medication that doesn't interact well with most 
painkillers, including asperine
