Guest guest Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 Hello folks. Could you please help me with a couple questions? I read the following at the SutherlandiaOPC website ( www . sutherlandiaopc . com ): << Possible Adverse EffectsPossible side effects from this herbal mix when used as a dietary supplement may be slight nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, pruritus, pain at a tumour site, tachycardia and arrhythmias. Because of its blood-thinning properties, people on medical blood-thinning preparations should consult their doctors before using the OPC. People on heart-active drugs, such as digoxin (Lanoxin) or anti-arrhythmics should also speak to their doctors before using the mixture. No other drug interactions have been reported. >> Anyone foresee any conflicts between Oleander and/or Sutherlandia OPC and these drugs?: Amlodipine Besylate (Norvasc) - calcium channel blocker (daily oral)Metoprolol (Lopressor) - beta blocker (daily oral)Enalapril Maleate (Vasotec) - ACE inhibitor (daily oral) Also, would Oleander and Sutherlandia OPC have any conflicts with any other herbs, supplements, foods, fatty acids, or enzymes (some said to have "blood-thinning" effects)?

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 Hi Glen, The only drugs that oleander may interfere with are blood thinners, such as coumadin and heart medication as described on the Sutherlandia OPC site. The only other supplement that should not be taken with oleander is Protocel. Everything else should be okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
