Good morning I am in the initial stages of treatment of hypertension. The cardiologist prescribed me 1/2 tablet of Norvasc 5mg (or 2.5mg) to take 1 x a day in the evening. My problem is whether I can drink chamomile and lemon balm during therapy with this drug? In the evenings, I like such a mixed tea, and I did not ask the doctor - the next visit in a month. Does Norvasc react with lemon balm and/or chamomile?

There should be no harmful interactions between the drugs mentioned by you. They can only be used if they have been prescribed by the same doctor or if the doctors prescribing these preparations have been informed about what other drugs the patient is already taking. Therefore, on the occasion of the next visit, I encourage you to inform the attending physician about all the medicines, herbs and dietary supplements used, which will allow you to choose a safe and effective pharmacotherapy.
