Hoodia and High Blood Pressure
In the past few months my blood pressure has been really crazy. The diastolic is always over 100 and my doctor has changed my medication now 3 times. Is there possibly an interaction between the Hoodia I'm taking to lose weight and the blood pressure?
MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL
Hoodia is an appetite suppressant that has not been very well studied. In fact, its efficacy is often questioned. I am not aware of any side-effects of this supplement. Certainly, if you think that there is a temporal relationship between your starting the hoodia and poor blood pressure control you should you could probably assume that the two are somehow related.
I am a Mitral Valve Repair,Cleveland Clinic former patient. Will Hoodia interact with my taking Toporal, zoloft and prempro?
