DF is a 40-year-old white female who presents to the clinic complaining of having high anxiety and frequent headaches. She states she is exhausted at the end of the day and falls asleep almost immediately at night. Her over-the-counter medication use includes a multiple vitamin, triprolidine, and pseudoephedrine (Actifed) if she has a cold, and she also uses ibuprofen for occasional headaches. DF admits to drinking two cups of coffee in the morning, denies alcohol or cigarette use, and tells you that her family history is positive for alcohol abuse and she is worried about using traditional medications for her anxiety. She is interested in trying an herbal agent. What do you think?
