If you use the whole herb you are relying on a rounded blend of healing chemicals found in the minimally processed plant.Periwinkle does not cause any known interactions with blood thinning medications (such as aspirin, Coumarin, Plavix, Ticlid, or Trental), although vinpocetine extracted from it does.
