Also garlic extract, curcumin and piperine (or bioperine), change how things are metabolized and processed in the liver. I take those and they amplify the effect of a medication I take, so I have to be extra careful with dosage.

On the flip side you can often get by with lower dosages, which in some cases mean less side effects.

I concur. The medication was in fact causing nasty side effects and I was able to cut the dosage in half. I may even be able to ween myself off it entirely once I find the right combination of natural alternatives.
