Before starting any new supplements, including saffron, it's essential to discuss with your eye doctor. They can help determine if supplements are appropriate for your specific stage of AMD and ensure they won't interact with other medications you're taking. While AREDS2 supplements are available over the counter, they contain higher concentrations of vitamins and minerals than your body may be used to. This means they could affect how you digest foods or interact with other supplements. Your doctor can recommend the best supplement regimen for your specific situation and help monitor for any potential side effects.
