I think one of the reasons why there is such a high prescription rate for St. John's Wort in Germany is that it's covered by the health insurance system. I think that's the case, anyway. All I know is that many German doctors prescribe this for cases of mild depression. Mild being the operative word. As for the safety or whatever, I'm not sure what their policy is.
