The subject was mentioned briefly in an earlier thread, if I recall correctly. I got curious, and looked around a bit. I found no evidence for an interaction. The idea of a contraindication arises, IMHO, because yohimbe might have an additive hypertensive effect if you're coincidentally exposed to pressor amines, such as tyramine. On its own, I don't think it's *unsafe*, but I'd be cautious nonetheless. There's no way to predict individual sensitivities.
