Can Herbs Berberine Be Taken While On Multaq?
Brief Answer:
Explained below...
Detailed Answer:
Hi my dear,
I understand your concern.
Multaq (dronedarone) is an anti-arrhythmic agent. I believe you are having atrial fibrillation since doctor prescribed multaq to you.
Usually, when having arrhythmia issues, patients are also prescribed an anti-clotting agent. If you are using any of them, then, gynostemma should not be used.
Berberine can be used in heart failure but have an undesirable side effect : increased heart beats, which is not good in your case.
Quercetin is found in many plants; it belongs to flavonoids group and so far no interaction has been shown between quercetin and multaq.
Hope this answers to your primary question.
