Help drug interactions; can't find an informative site for these drugs.?
i have a friend who is planing to add these diet supplements to his daily intake.
>FOLIC ACID
>SELENIUM
however he's worried they might interact with his medications,
here are the med's he takes daily.
-TENORMIN.
-AMARYL.
-ASPIRIN.
-GAVISCON.<-occasionally,
as you might have guessed from the list, he has high blood pressure and diabetes.
he also has a mild cholesterol problem which he has under control thru his diet.
also if it helps he's 53 and has only an above average BMI,
I've been looking online for a while now, but so far i can't find a site that fully tells you about their interactions not just with other drugs but with vitamins and other diet supplements as well
i appreciate any sites or information i can get on the matter,
as for Mechelle here,
GOOD GOD girl give it a rest already!
how many thumbs down can you take in one day,=?
also i was wondering if GAVISCON is okay to take for a type2 diabetic,
as for mechelle i have this to say,
GOOD GOD girl give it a rest already!
how many thumbs down can you take in one day,=?

I highly doubt there will be any interactions. Folic acid and selenium are basic nutrients that the body requires to even stay alive – any drug that interacts with necessary nutrients in the body would probably be fatal and will never be passed. Unless your friend is overdoing these nutrients (which is dangerous even if he isn’t taking other drugs), he’ll be fine.
You only ever need to worry about drug interactions between different prescribed drugs, as prescribed medication are not nutrients that exist in every living person.
