		Concomitant administration of NIZORAL® Tablets with cisapride is contraindicated because it has resulted in markedly elevated cisapride plasma concentrations and prolonged QT interval, and has rarely been associated with ventricular arrhythmias and torsades de pointes.

	When Breastfeeding Is Not Contraindicated
		It is up to those who promote the intervention, i.e., feeding other than breastfeeding, to prove their intervention is not harmful.

		On that basis, it is fair to say that breastfeeding is almost never contraindicated.

	Is Echinacea Contraindicated in Autoimmune Conditions?
		I recently researched the question of echinacea contraindication in auto immunity thoroughly, and published the opinion last Spring in the book The Healing Power of Echinacea and Goldenseal (Prima Publishing) that echinacea was not so contraindicated.
		The best clinicians are always ready to eat their words, or their previous opinion, when clinical facts get in the way, and a patient may be hurt, and I now have to do the same.
		Due to the rarity of reports of such instances, the word "contraindication" is too strong, but practitioners may be prudent to carefully observe reactions to the use of echinacea in auto immune conditions, especially in patients undergoing an acute exacerbation or whose condition is kept in precarious balance with immunosuppressive drugs.
