inositol: Uses, Side Effects, Interactions and Warnings - WebMD
Hello newtus: I'm not familiar with this substance. I did go to the WebMD article you provided the link to. The way the information was written, using words like: "possibly", & "may", etc. makes what is known about this substance sound very equivocal. I did note, as well, there is some potential concern with regard to possible drug interactions. But under any circumstances, as you're probably already aware, it's always best to check things like this out with your pdoc or other treating physician, assuming you're on any type of prescription medication.
