The following supplement plan is designed for people who are taking hormone replacement therapy medications. Hormone replacement medications such as such as Estrace®, Premarin®, Prempro® have been shown to deplete Folate, Vitamin B6, B12, and Magnesium.

This supplement plan is designed to be used in combination with the advice of your physician. Do not stop taking prescription medication without consulting your physician. Below, you'll find supplement recommendations, but diet and lifestyle are important too. Read more in our article: Hormone Replacement Therapy: Key Drug-Nutrient Interactions.

Drug-Supplement Interactions:

Caffeine: The stimulating effects of caffeine may be increased due to inhibition of metabolism or clearance of caffeine by hormone replacement therapy.
