I would not expect there to be any contraindication/interaction with your meds and a blackseed and honey mixture, especially since it appears that your "mixture" is relatively small.

You may wish to consult the insert that should come with your medication (or google it online) and/or consult your medical provider or pharmacist for a professional opinion.

I'm wondering
1) what is "black seed."
2) why do you take this everyday.  Just curious.
If you care to answer.

Let's be clear about this, Nigella black seed cumin doesnt do a damn thing for HIV, don't believe the claims.


It is snake oil, nothing more.

Thanks for the opportunity to clarify, Zach.  Neither the POZ forums nor the moderators of the forums place any efficacy in Nigella Sativa nor any other herbal remedy as treatment of the HIV or anything other health-related issue. 

All treatment for HIV infection should be conducted under the supervision of a licensed medical professional.
