Does Turmeric Have Any Dangerous Reaction With Brillinta ? I
Question: Does Turmeric have any dangerous reaction with Brillinta ?
I was taking it regularly for arthritis and it perfectly until I was one day prescribed Brillinta....for another problem) and was led to believe that I could not take turmeric. My local doctor says that the amount taken in an average curry would do no harm, but I was taking a bit more than that. Do you have any idea of a known safe amount to take...?

Turmeric has been traditionally used as a herbal drug and have got role in many inflammatory condition incluidng arthritis. There are few more uses claimed for it.
Regarding the dose depends on its curcamin concentration, which is the active ingredient. In the extract, it's as high 95 percent, this may be low turmeric we take as in the foods that we take.
