My g/f is considering taking xenadrive but she was wondering if this will affect her birth control pills. Can anyone help me with this question?

Well, here's the warning on the label:

Warning: Keep out of the reach of children. Not intended for persons under 18 years of age. Do not use if you are pregnant or nursing or at risk of or being treated for high blood pressure, heart disease, renal disease, hyperthyroidism, spasms, psychiatric disease, suffer from migraines, are allergic to tyramine or chocolate, have asthma, or are taking asthma medication. Consult your physician before use if you are taking a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI). The recommended dose of this product contains about as much caffeine as a cup of coffee and should not be taken by individuals wishing to eliminate caffeine from their diet. Limit use of caffeine-containing foods and beverages while taking this product because too much caffeine may cause nervousness, irritability, sleeplessness, and occasionally, rapid heartbeat.

There doesn't appear anything on here that could interfere with birth control pills...however, to be sure, she should consult with her physician.

Hope this helps...

It shouldn't affect her birth control. She should be fine.

Nope no danger there.
She can take xenadrine with her other pills.
