Can Turmeric Supplement Be Taken While On Verapamil And Cymbalta?
I have osteoarthritis and I take Veramil, toleteridone, cymbalta and trazadone on a daily basis. It was recommended that I try a supplement called turemic. I was wondering if this supplement would interact negatively with any of my daily mediciations.

Hi,
Usually, turmeric will enhance the chance for bleeding if taken together with blood thinners. As I was going through your medical history, no blood thinners was mentioned, so there is no risk to take turmeric along with other medicines. Unless, you might experience any undesirable or uncommon side effect.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
