Treatment even if I'm on prescription medication? Yes. In fact, it is more often the case that a patient is on prescription medication. A licensed ND has received training in pharmacology and has knowledge of drug-nutrient-herb interactions that could possibly harm the patient. An ND will not require you to stop medication if doing so will be harmful (for example, Type 1 diabetic patients require insulin). ND's can help you manage side effects of medication, identify ways to help you benefit most from your medication, and in appropriate cases, possibly lower your dose of prescription medication. |
