Silibinin is found in milk thistle. I thought so but checked it out to be sure. It seems you can purchase Silibinin at Amazon. Interesting. I think drugs like Jakafi (Ruxolotinib) and Xeljanz (Tofacitinib block stat 3 and these two drugs are associated with low neutrophil and low platelet counts and need careful monitoring. Milk thistle is relatively safe and of course sold OTC
