Until @Wiola!: Both quetiapine (the active ingredient in Quetaplex) and sertraline (the active ingredient in Asentra) are metabolised by the CYP3A4 isoenzyme, so the possibility of interaction with capsules with powdered Moringa leaves cannot be excluded.
Can I take Moringa leaf capsules at the same time as quetaplex and asentra tablets? These are depressants.

There are no contraindications to drinking tea from Moringa leaves with drugs with olanzapine. When combining tea from Moringa leaves, special care is recommended. The use of Moringa leaves may affect the activity of liver isoenzymes CYP3A4 and may affect the efficacy and safety of drugs metabolised by this enzyme. One of the pathways of venlafaxine metabolism is CYP3A4 metabolising. The possibility of interaction between venlafaxine and Moringa leaves is not excluded. I encourage you to consult your doctor. I encourage you to familiarize yourself with our additional material, about whether it is possible to combine drugs with each other: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/czy-mozna-laczyc-leki-ze-soba
