My doctor has me taking Rifampin & Minocycline at the usual dosage x2 a day.
Prior to this, I was taking the Nutramedix Tinctures (Banderol, Samento, Houttynia).
I stopped the Nutramedix protocol because Rifampin & alcohol are not supposed to be taken together.
After speaking w/the doctor again, he said it's ok to start the nutramdix stuff even while on rifampin.
After I take the nutramedix stuff, I get all kinds of weird feelings, nausea, fast heart rate, etc.
I'm wondering if anyone has experience with what I'm going thru.
Is it ok to take Rifampin with alcohol based tinctures?
What has been your experience?

I have. Not with nutramedix, but other tinctures. I was never warned against it. I take Rifampin away from everything 1x in the early morning on an empty stomach.
