Because the manufacturing of supplements (such as milk thistle) is not closely regulated, it is important to choose a trustworthy manufacturer for milk thistle supplements. Your pharmacist can help you choose a milk thistle supplement from a reliable manufacturer.
If you have any chronic health problems or take any prescription medications, it is probably a good idea to check with your healthcare provider before taking milk thistle.
If you are unsure about anything related to your dosage or milk thistle dosing in general, please talk with your healthcare provider.
