I had a look for you on an American site which is trustworthy. Berrocca can interact badly with medication for Ovarian Cancer and Parkinson's, hopefully you have neither. Interestingly it said that I can interfere with test results for vitamin B12 and a deficiency of which is something quite a few people with fibro appear to have so if you are likely to be undergoing a test for this it might be best to keep off it. It would be wise to have a word with your pharmacist to make sure as I have found them more knowledgeable about drug interactions than doctors as that is their speciality.x

Ask your local chemist, they are best people to advise on interactions with medication xxxx

Hello! I am a pharmacist :) berroca should be fine to take with duloxetine as it only contains B vitamins. Nil interactions have been documented xx

I think Berroca has artificial sweeteners in it and they don’t really work well with fibro. I use B12 patches from amazon, and I find they work really well for me.
