Can I take 10 and Edoxaban together?

Why this happens

St John's Wort speeds up the liver enzymes and transport proteins (specifically P-glycoprotein) that break down and remove edoxaban from your body. This causes the level of the medicine in your blood to drop too low to work properly.

Do not take St John's Wort if you are taking edoxaban. If you are already taking both, do not stop the St John's Wort suddenly, but speak to your doctor or pharmacist immediately. They will need to check your treatment plan and may suggest an alternative for your mood that does not interfere with your blood thinner.
