Hi there,
Thanks for posting in HCM.

There is no harm in taking Turmeric for arthritis when you are on Verapamil, Escitalopram and asthma medications.

Take Turmeric in the dose of 500 mg twice a day.

Larger doses can cause the following effects -

1. Stomach upset
2. Nausea
3. Diarrhea

Let me know if you have any more questions.
