Is It OK To Drink Holy Basil Tea In Cushing's Syndrome?

In a month now, I will be undergoing blood test for my cortisol level. I was suspected to have Cushing's Syndrome , but since, I took Decilone for almost a month, I was advise to wait for a month before taking the test. I am planning to drink Holy Basil Tea, is it ok to drink the said tea if I am scheduled for cortisol blood level test?
