Supplements during medication

2018-11-26 08:19:37
Hello doctors, this is anand from chennai, for past 8 months I have been taking 'galop ls' tablets for my depression and anxiety and now I'm feeling well and fresh. My weight is 86 kg and height is 175 cm and going gym for past one month. Now I'm planning to take fat burner combined with whey protein supplements to increase my performance during the training. Now my doubt is does taking supplements while on medication affects my mental health?? Awaiting your reply
