I don't take pills, but I want to know: what's the catch? Does the effectiveness just drop off?
It’s photosensitive (if I’m remembering the term 😁 correctly). You can end up with nasty skin discoloration or spots.
I don't take any pills myself, but I'm wondering: what's the deal there? Does it just make them less effective or something?
On my specific brand (Bellune35), the label claims that St. John's Wort reduces its effectiveness. I suppose that might not apply to every single formulation out there, though. 🙂
