Can i take evening primrose capsules and blood pressure?!
Question:
Can i take evening primrose capsules and blood pressure?
does anyone medically know if i can take evening primrose capsules the same time as blood pressure tablets please.
Answers:
The active ingredient in Evening Primrose Oil is gamma-linolenic acid. This is thought to have anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic actions.
Medications that it interacts with include anti-schizophrenic drugs, warfarin, aspirin and painkillers such as ibuprofen (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). If you are taking any of these I would avoid taking evening primrose oil.
There are no documented interactions with blood pressure tablets.
