Hello,
I am interested in the interaction of supplements with medications for high blood pressure. For example, with Coenzyme Q10, ginseng...
Thank you.
Coenzyme Q10 is generally recommended to be combined with antihypertensive drugs, as it reduces their side effects and improves their tolerance. Ginsengs exhibit antihypertensive effects, with the added advantage that they are practically non-toxic in terms of overdose. They are commonly combined with antihypertensives, but it is always advisable for this combination to be approved by the attending physician.
