Can Goldenseal Affect Power of Anitclotting Medications?

Goldenseal Cautions

Goldenseal is a wonderfully effective herb for treating conditions that need attention from antibiotic sources. It's used frequently to treat strep, sinus infections and other problems usually associated with colds and flus. It is VERY important, however, to avoid taking goldenseal with any anti-clotting drug such as, Coumadin or Heparin, because there is a risk that the effectiveness of these medications may be decreased.
