Can herbs effect my birth control pill?

January 9th, 2011 | Flu Symptoms and Signs Scroll Down To Read Answers To The Question

hi does anyone know about any herbal remedies that make the birth control pill less effective because I took some Echinacia, Zinc and Vitamin C tablet for colds and flu and now I am a bit worried about it. I totally forgot that some herbs can effect it but it never said anything on the box about it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks!

    Yes some herbs do affect the pills but if you have taken just echanacia, zinc and vitamin c, then it shouldn’t be a problem. I am definatley sure.

    I am pretty sure you are okay, I don’t think herbs do that just prescription drugs.

  3. Dr Frank says:

    None of these 3 preparations interfere with the pill, unfortunately neither do they have any effect at all on the severity or duration of colds, so I would stop wasting your time and money.
