Can Florastor Be Taken While On Blood Pressure Medication?

My mother is a heart patient. She takes blood pressure medication, cholesterol medication and medication for her heart. She has started taking a probiotic that is called florastor. I was concerned that there could be a drug interaction. The ingredients of florastor are saccharomeyes boularis, Lactose, Magnesium stearate, Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, and Titanium dioxide.
