Is it safe to mix herbal remedies and arthritis drugs? I am already on drug therapy for arthritis, but I am not satisfied there is still some pain. I was thinking to try with natural remedies. Can I take them all at the same time?

I asked my husband, he is MD and he said that herbal remedies and arthritis drugs can be a potentially dangerous mix. Doctors may not recognize the potential adverse effects associated with herbal remedies, and patients may be reluctant to report either the use of herbal remedies or adverse effects, so both patients and prescribers need more information education on the risks and potential interactions of these preparations.
