Q:

I'm currently taking adderall for ADD. I'm also interested in taking Yohimbe to improve my love life. Is this a dangerous combination? Are there any other herbs I could take with adderall to help with sex life?

 

A:

You would be risking some significant potential drug reactions to combine Yohimbe with Adderall. Adderall is not safe to be combined with many herbal and over the counter medications, because of the potential of cardiovascular side effects and over stimulation, risking hypertension, vascular spasm and seizure. You need to talk with your health care provider about the concerns you are having about your sex drive, or if you are having erection or orgasm dysfunction, which may, in fact, be medication or drug related.
