Can Garcinia Cambogia Be Taken Along With BP Medicines?
I had to have 3 stents put in 2 years ago during the procedure some of the plaque turned loose and caused a heart attack. I am fine now with no damage to my heart, I am on bp meds and cholesterol meds. But I have gained weigh on these meds, I still do most of what I did before just do not have the strength or stamina I had. Can I take garcinia cambogia with my meds?
