How Soon Can I Eat After Taking SAM-e?

default
Posted on Wed, 16 Sep 2015
Question: SAM-e needs to be taken on an empty stomach. How soon after may I eat?
Also, I'm on a small dose (75mg) of Wellbutrin. Is there a problem with trying sam-e in addition? My psych doc would not know the answer to this.
Thank you, XXXXX

no problem

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome to HCM.
There is no problem with taking XXXXXXX together with other antidepressants. It should be taken 1 hour after meal,and dont eat within 1 hour after taking it. However, its beneficial effects are still scientifically unproved,butin every case it cant harm you.If there is o effect within 1 month then probably wont be effect at all. Wish you good health. Regards
