Insurance Paid for Herbal Medicines
German health insurance paid $283 million in reimbursements for prescribed ginkgo, St. John’s wort, mistletoe, saw palmetto, ivy, hawthorn, stinging nettle root, myrtol, phytosterols, and cucurbita in 2003.
French health insurance paid $91 million in partial reimbursements for ginkgo, saw palmetto, and pygeum prescriptions with a total value of $196 million in 2002.

Herbal Medicines in US In a 1990 survey of 1,539 adults, 33.8% of
respondents used herbal medicines or nutritional supplements.
By 1997, the number had increased to 42.1%, with most people paying the cost out-of-pocket.
Approximately 40% of patients who use alternative therapies do not disclose this information to their doctor.

HerbConventional Drug
Comments
Ginkgo leaf
Acetylsalicylic acid
Rofecoxib
Warfarin
Trazodone
Ginkgo combined with acetylsalicylic acid, rofecoxib, or warfarin has been associated with bleeding reactions.
Coma was reported in a patient with Alzheimer’s disease who took ginkgo leaf with trazodone.
Hawthorn leaf or flower
Digitalis glycosidesSince hawthorn may exert digitalis-like inotropic effects, it is prudent to monitor persons taking this herb in addition to digitalis glycosides closely.

Potential Interactions between Herbs and Conventional Drugs (II)
NEJM 347:2046, 2002
HerbConventional Drug
Comments
St. John’s wort
5-Aminolevulinic acid
Amitriptyline
Cyclosporine
Digoxin
Indinavir
Midazolam
Nefazodone
Nevirapine
Oral contraceptives
Paroxetine
Phenprocoumon
Sertraline
Simvastatin
Tacrolimus
Theophylline
Warfarin
A phototoxic reaction occurred in a patient simultaneously exposed to 5-aminolevulinic acid and St. John’s wort; in clinical studies, pretreatment with St. John’s wort decreased the area under the curve for amitriptyline (and its active metabolite nortriptyline), digoxin, indinavir, midazolam, phenprocoumon, and the active metabolite of simvastatin (simvastatin hydroxy acid); case reports have associated St.
John’s wort with reduced levels of cyclosporine (sometimes with transplant rejection), tacrolimus, and theophylline; with increased oral clearance of nevirapine; with intermenstrual bleeding or altered menstrual bleeding in users of oral contraceptives; and with reduced effects of phenprocoumon and warfarin; lethargy and grogginess were reported in a patient taking St. John’s wort and paroxetine, and the serotonin syndrome has been reported in users of nefazodone or sertraline (case reports); St. John’s wort alone has also been associated with serotonin syndrome– like events (case reports).

Conclusions and Suggestions (I)
Evidences from in vitro and in vivo studies has indicated that the constituents of herbal preparation, even food, interact with various drug metabolic enzymes extensively.
High throughput screening assays combine with in vivo or clinical study will be a useful strategy to examine the herb-drug interactions
EHFG 5-8, Oct. 2005 28
Conclusions and Suggestions (II)
Medical and pharmaceutical communities had been slow to respond to this important issue
Government, industry and medical societies should vigorously examine the possible drug interaction with the most commonly used herbal drugs
Drug Insert should clearly indicate the clinically significant drug interaction with commonly used herbs, dietary supplements, healthy food and traditional medicines
