Lion's mane may interact with medications, e.g. psychiatric or antidiabetic. Possible supplementation should be consulted with the attending physician. Take the supplement as directed by your doctor.
Online and stationary pharmacies offer preparations such as:

Cordyceps (Cordyceps chinensis) should not be used, for example, with immunosuppressive and anticancer drugs. It contains substances that stimulate the dopaminergic system, which can increase the sense of motivation, satisfaction and pleasure. Escitalopram (the active substance in Escipram) does not affect dopamine levels in the nervous system, indicating that the preparations may be used concomitantly. So far, no interactions between the preparations have been demonstrated. We wrote more about preparations containing Cordyceps here:

If you are unable to consult your doctor about the use of the Lion's mane preparation, I encourage you to use the teleconsultation, e.g. via the Gdziepolek.pl portal:
