Hello, there is no contraindication to taking saffron and cipralex (escitalopram) together. Small studies have even shown a positive effect on depression and anxiety. However, it is possible that saffron may cause drowsiness , nausea or vomiting in some people. Good evening Yes you can, but it would be pertinent to notify your pharmacist so that these can be documented in your chart to track interactions as your case progresses
