About Can I Take These?

Can I Take These? is an independent, free reference tool for checking documented interactions between supplements and medications. It is built and maintained as an engineering-led project: an interaction checker backed by a structured database of sourced evidence, not a clinic, pharmacy, or medical practice.

Why it exists

People commonly take multiple supplements and medications together and want a fast, trustworthy way to check whether a specific combination has a documented interaction, a timing consideration, or an evidence gap worth being aware of. Existing options are often either buried in dense prescribing information or presented without clear sourcing. This site tries to answer the direct question -- "can I take these together?" -- while showing exactly what evidence that answer rests on.

How evidence is reviewed

Every published interaction or substance page traces to real, recorded sources -- prioritizing FDA/DailyMed labeling, NIH Office of Dietary Supplements fact sheets, PubMed-indexed research, and recognized clinical guidelines. Nothing is published without at least one linked source; this is enforced at the database level, not just by editorial process. See the full methodology for the source hierarchy and review workflow.

Who reviews content

At this stage, there is no named qualified medical or pharmacist reviewer attached to this site's content, and pages do not claim one. We are not going to invent a reviewer credential to make the site look more authoritative than it is. Pursuing a qualified pharmacist or clinician review process is a goal before scaling higher-risk medical content -- see the editorial policy for the current review workflow.

What this site does not do

It does not diagnose, prescribe, or tell you to start, stop, or change a medication. It does not certify that an untested or unreviewed combination is safe. See the full disclaimer.
