Lisa -- I don't know about vitamins and Zoloft. But I would worry about any herb that was either psychoactive such as St. John's wort or something with central nervous system depressant effects (I think kava kava is one of those). Remember, just because something is labeled "natural" doesn't mean it doesn't have side effects. Also, product labeling for Zoloft and other antidepressants warns against taking it with alcohol. I would imagine the same holds true with marijuana. I would talk to my doctor before taking anything herbal or otherwise with a prescribed antidepressant. Terry

> > Hi Carol! I too take herbs and vitamins each day and recently started taking Zoloft. I have CMT (a Muscular Dystrophy neuropathy) and have been experiencing sudden 'downturns' in my condition. I am also curious what may interfere with the effectiveness of Zoloft. Does anyone have any knowledge to share with us? Thanks, Mona
