Is Curamed Safe In The Treatment Of Sciatica?
I have a question about taking turmeric/curcumin at the same time of taking aspirin for thinning blood after having had a stroke. I have heard that the two do thin blood, too. My daughter is taking CuraMed which is helping knee pain, in a very large amount. I have nutrflair pills that say not ot take more than suggested----I d like to try to take more to see if I can get some relief from sciatica by taking more, but would it be safe??

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Turmeric is not an anticoagulant. Nor does it lower stroke risk. Excess of most things is bad. The use should be judicious.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
