Conclusion
Generally, Jordanians have a positive perception towards herbs and their
ability to treat diseases. However, their knowledge about
food/beverage-drug interactions was poor. This calls attention for the
need to develop proper educational programs to enhance community
awareness and knowledge about food/beverage/herb-drug interactions to
help avoid complications or side effects associated with such types of
interaction. This can be done in many ways including awareness campaigns
sponsored by pharmaceutical companies, hospitals, pharmacies, or the
Ministry of Health. In addition to the distribution of pamphlets or
leaflets regarding this matter or even hosting healthcare providers who
are well-educated about food/beverage/herb-drug interactions in national
television and interviewing them by local newspapers to help educate
people.
