Ginseng

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Clinicians should be aware of this probable drug interaction and avoid coadministration of ginseng and lamotrigine or use a more conservative dose titration of lamotrigine for patients who are also taking ginseng.
Use of the Drug Interaction Probability Scale indicated that a drug interaction between lamotrigine and ginseng was the probable cause (score of 5).
We describe the first case, to our knowledge, of DRESS syndrome that was probably induced by a drug interaction between lamotrigine and ginseng.
