TL;DR: The primary aim of this study was to assess the impact of patient medication counseling by comparing the levels of patient's medication knowledge and adherence achieved by medication counseling in an outpatient clinic.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of triphala on drug modulating enzymes was evaluated by using HPLC analysis with gallic acid as an analytical marker compound, and the results showed that the triphalia formulation and its individual components showed significantly less inhibitory activity ( p in vitro effect of 'triphala'on drug modifying enzymes has important implications for predicting the likelihood of herbdrug interactions if these are administered concomitantly.

TL;DR: There is an urgent need for the development of international co-ordination to promote and develop NHPs, including their assessment, perspectives, pharmacovigilance, and potential harmonization of regulation, quality control and clinical uses.

TL;DR: The potential for drug interactions by herbal extracts through drug metabolizing enzymes is reviewed, indicating the possibility of potential herb-drug interactions due to the concomitant administration of herbal extracts and prescription/over-the-counter drugs.

TL;DR: The present study was aimed to investigate the possible interaction of the standardized extract of Acorus calamus with Cytochrome P450 enzyme, quantitative determination of the α-asarone in the AC rhizome was performed by RP-HPLC method.
