Ancient medical experience and current clinical experience show that Korean ginseng only conflicts with a few foods and medicines, such as radish, tea, aconite, cardiac glycosides in Western medicine, and drugs such as propantheline and nandrolone phenylpropionate. It is a relatively mild tonic. The adverse reactions produced when a conflict occurs are generally to reduce the efficacy of ginseng, causing dry throat, decreased appetite, etc. Only when it is taken together with cardiac glycosides may it cause cardiac glycoside poisoning. Infertility is not among the various symptoms of known drug conflicts.
