  • Drug-dietary supplement interactions (essential for medical malpractice cases).
  • Drug testing (why is my client getting a positive drug test result if the only thing taken was a dietary supplement?).
  • Medical conditions that dietary supplements can worsen, and impairment due to dietary supplements.
  • An overview of labeling requirements and regulation of these products is also covered.

  3. List 2 dietary supplement-drug interactions
