It depends.
If you’re taking prescribed medicines such as aspirin, digoxin and other heart medications, diuretics, hypoglycemic agents, NSAIDs, spironolactone, or blood thinning drugs such as warfarin, it’s important not to use them at the same time as any herbal supplements without checking with your health care provider first. Some herbs and supplements may interact with your heart and blood pressure negatively. If someone is taking a blood thinner (anticoagulant) medication such as warfarin (Coumadin), they may bleed excessively if they also consume certain herbal supplements.
Be cautious about taking dietary supplements if you are pregnant or nursing. Also, be careful about giving supplements to a child, unless recommended by their healthcare provider. Many supplements have not been well tested for safety in pregnant women, nursing mothers, or children.
To ensure you are properly and effectively treating the correct condition, please consult a qualified medical professional first before using herbs or supplements.
