Even if you do not have heart disease, medicines like Olmesartan, Clopivas AP, and Crestor are prescribed to control blood pressure, cholesterol, and reduce future risk, especially in diabetes. You should be cautious while taking Arjun Amla juice, because such products are not always standardised and may interact with your medicines, especially blood thinners like aspirin and clopidogrel in Clopivas AP, which can increase the risk of bleeding. It is important not to stop or replace your prescribed medicines with Ayurvedic remedies, and before starting any such supplement, discuss it with your doctor so they can ensure it is safe and monitor for any side effects.
