Interaction matrix
| Pairing | Severity | Type | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ashwagandha × SSRI | moderate | additive-risk | Ashwagandha with an SSRI may carry additive sedative/serotonergic risk; evidence is limited. |
| Magnesium × SSRI | minor | neutral | Generally fine with an SSRI; space about 2 hours apart. |
Biggest weak link
Ashwagandha × SSRI — moderate interaction — your highest-risk pairing
Possible redundancy
- For sleep: Magnesium, Ashwagandha — two things doing a similar job.
Timing
- Magnesium: Magnesium is a cofactor in vitamin D metabolism; the two are complementary.
