RE: St Johns Wort and adolescence

I can't be specific regarding asthma, but I do know that St. Johns wort, whilst being a wonderful treatment for many things, is notorious for interfering with some prescribed (or even some non-prescribed) medications. Most commonly known is that it can negate the effectiveness of the female pill. How it would effect any asthma medications though I couldn't say.
