contraception and herbex slimmers?
Do herbex slimmers drops affect the effectiveness of the pill (contraception) ? My chemist said that it did not, I just want to make double sure??? It’s obviously not a risk I want to take.

Dear Rose
Some of the herbal products can compete in the liver with metabolism of contraceptive - but Herbex's package insert says it is fine to use with contraceptives.
