Question : I am currently taking Brilinta for a heart attack in April. I have a stent. I used to take colloidal silver as a dietary supplement while using it I never had a cold or flu. Can I use this with Brilinta.

Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

Regarding your concern, I would explain that there is no interaction between brilinta and colloidal silver.

This means that it is safe to take these drugs concomitantly.

But, I would recommend taking them separately in different times during the day, in order to avoid possible problems with their absorption.

Hope to have been helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
