I have a friend at work who has high blood pressure. Would it be ok for her to take her meds and eat flaxseed at the same time?

Flaxseed is usually ok, but always inform the doctor because it's something that you're adding to your diet that's not typical and better to let the Dr know just as info. My husband is on high b.p. meds and it's fine ... he even takes the pills, not an issue but Drs do better the more informed they are.

yup Omega 3s are good for anyone!

Yes, omega oils are good for the heart.
But she should avoid vitamin e.

No problem at all. The flax seed may even help a tiny bit to lower blood pressure.

Mixing prescription medication can sometimes cause problems.
