Experiences with

Echinacea

Has anyone taken Echinacea while on Hydroxycarbamide?

Was at my herbalist today and he mentioned Echinacea would help and for me to take drops in water. Does anyone else take this, apparently it helps white blood cells and the immune system, therfore preventing colds, etc.

I am concerned that certain things will interact with his medication , I have been googling and not really finding mixed answers I am looking at things like Probiotics , strong vitamin C supplements , vitamin D3 or D2 supplements , Zinc, Echinacea, Elderberry extract, Oregano oil, Spirulina , Blueberry

Hi all In the past I’ve taken echinacea. I’ve just read on the instructions do not take if you have asthma. I’m sure it didn’t affect me before but now I’m hesitant to take them. Does anybody else use them?

Honey, lemon, ginger and echinacea tonight!

Bee pollen, solidago decurrens, echinacea, saw palm and grass pollen extracts are common. Different patients have obvious differences in drug tolerance and treatment effect.

Does anyone know if it's ok to take Echinacea with meds for af? I know it's herbal but you have to be so careful. Thank you

Aviva Romm’s Adrenal Thyroid Revolution suggests Echinacea, Lemon Balm, Licorice and St. John’s Wort. Does anyone have any experience of this and any recommendations? Thanks

To a pint jar add 1 cup ground root of Echinacea purpurearoot, a species shown to enhance immune function and moderately reduce cold symptom severity and duration. Add 1½ cup vodka and stir. If there isn’t 1 to 2 inches of vodka layered above the ground root, add more vodka. Shake daily.

Using saline rinse and taking an echinacea supplement at the first sign of a cold helped a lot. Doing so also helped prevent the cold from developing into a sinus infection. I haven't had a sinus infection within the last three years.

The daisy family contains several members which are used medicinally, including echinacea, calendula chamomile, yarrow, and dandelion. It contains a substance called helenalin, which is a potent anti-inflammatory.

This morning my throat is sore so have taken some echinacea drops in some water when I got up and have used the throat spray twice. My heart has been doing some interesting ectopics all dst and now have an horrendous headache. Is this the echinacea?? Took my BP which is also raised a little bit.

Was told today this can help stabilise the immune system. I will try most things but never heard of this x

I know I can’t take echinacea with pred, any other supplements which might help? Am eating lots of green veg, broccoli, kale etc, don’t know what else to try.Now avoiding friends & relatives who are full of the cold, but don’t want to be a recluse!!!! Would appreciate any advice.

The only thing I do is take echinacea, and only one that has sufficient quantities to allegedly be able to work (supposed to give your immunity a boost) but I am not sure I believe in that either.
