I had gotten it from a mail order company many times now can't find it. French research for slimness instituite. blue bottle 4oz liquid tasted like mint. ## I'm sorry, but I have no information on why it is no longer available. Forskolin, as of this time, has not actually been approved for any medical uses and is still undergoing testing, which may have something to do with it. Have you tried looking for alternate brands?

Please answer my question about taking Forskolin (weight loss supplement touted by Dr Oz) while on amlodipine, atenol and losartan. Is there an interaction here? ## Hello, BJ! How are you? It's not a good idea to take anything recommended by Dr. Oz, without checking with your doctor. Many of his recommendations were found to not have any scientific validity or medial proof and he is currently under investigation for making unfounded claims for many of the products he touts. You can find various stories in many popular and well known new sources regarding this, as well as cautionary warnings. Additionally, if you have high blood pressure, you have to be very careful what supplements you take, as some of them may act as stimulants, which could elevate heart rate and blood pressure, as...

I had a kidney transplant and am on the following medications: Tacrolimus, cellcept, amlodipine, atenolol, bactrim & humalog (for diabetes). Can I take forskolin as well? I weigh 228lbs. ## I am sorry, but since Forskolin is classified as a supplement, I have not been able to find any information on this. The FDA doesn't require testing for them, as it does for actual medications. Has your doctor instructed you take it?

Forskolin, a highly touted weight loss supplement, can it be taken with amlodipine, losartan and atenol? desperately need to lose weight. ## Amlodipine is prescribed 5mg as maximum dose once a day only. Losaratan is BP drug as also atenolol. These two are prescribed twice daily as single or combination drugs.. atenolol is an old prescription. Now the most recent are Carvedilol, metaprolol and all such drugs ending with 'lol'. ## @BJ, Concerning drug interactions with Forskolin, I think this is something that you may need to take up with your doctor, since drug interaction checkers don't compare pharmaceutical discrepancies with natural herbal extracts. However, information I'm finding on the other three medications (amlodipine, atenolol and losartan) goes on to note that...

Can i take alprazolam 2mg hours later after I've taken my pure forskolin extract diet pill? Is it safe? What can happen? ## I would read the handout you were given for both, and also consult with a pharmacist or your Doctor. I would say its probably fine to mix these.

I have a head cold for which I'm taking Mucinex and Augmentin. Can I take Forskolin along with it? ## According to the University of Maryland Medical Center (umm.edu / drug interaction tool), there are no interactions listed between Mucinex and Augmentin. However, when it comes to natural plant-derived OTC supplements such as Forskolin (coleonol) I'm afraid that Western medical literature doesn't cater to this category of medicine. If in doubt, I would encourage you to get in touch with a naturopathic/holistic physician who can make sense of its mechanism of action to verify Forskolin's safety in combination with these other pharmaceutical-based medications. It might also be best to just wait until you recover from that head cold so you don't have to worry about inte...

I believe John Goodman took a pill starting with the letter F. Saw it yesterday, March 12, 2016 somewhere. Bui ## Forskolin was the supplement I saw in an article. ## @Buick, Any idea if this was a supplement or a prescription drug? Forskolin is the most common dietary supplement I'm finding in this category. However I know Phentermine certainly sounds like it could start with an 'F' if you had just heard it on TV without seeing it spelled out. There's also some other not so well-known products in the realm of weight loss meds/supplements such as Fenfluramine [though some reports suggest that it was withdrawn from the U.S. market in 1997 due to potentially serious adverse effects]; as well as a product by the name of "Fruta Planta" which is discussed in other thr...

I am currently taking xarelto and xanax and I am trying to lose wait and wanted to know if it would be safe for me to take forskolin since I am taking the xarelto. ## Hello, Brenda! How are you? I didn't find any problems or interactions listed in the databases that I checked, however, I must add the caveat that natural supplements, such as Forskolin, are not actually studied for possible problems or interactions, so the safest thing to do would be to check with your doctor, before taking it, to be safe. The FDA warns that Xanax carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Is there anything else I can help with?
