How are Concor Cor, Rimal and Grofibrate S used together? Can I use Swanson Berberine with Concor Cor, Rimal and Grofibrate S?
Good evening, I have been taking Concor COR 2.5mg tablets for several days; Rimal 5mg and Grofibrate s 215mg. Can I take these three medications together at the same time in the morning? On an empty stomach or after a meal? I would also like to start taking a dietary supplement from Swanson berberine 400mg twice a day with meals. Can they be combined with my medications? Or are there rather contraindications? Best regards

The combined use of Concor Cor and Rimal should be done as prescribed by your doctor. The doctor should determine both the dosage and the intervals between preparations. Due to possible interactions (such as increased hypotensive effect), it is recommended to separate the preparations used temporarily. According to the manufacturer's recommendations, Concor Cor should be used in the morning with or without food: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/19583/concor-cor-2-5-tabletki-powlekane/apteki According to the manufacturer's recommendations, Rimal can be taken together or without food at any time of the day: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/96144/rimal-5-mg-5-mg-kapsulki/apteki According to the manufacturer's recommendations, Grofibrat S should be taken with food at any time of the day: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/87849/grofibrat-s-tabletki-powlekane/apteki Berberine may increase the effects of other medicines. It is recommended to be cautious with the combined use of berberine and, m.in drugs that lower blood pressure (eg Concor Cor, Rimal): https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/95734/swanson-berberyna-kapsulki/apteki We wrote more about berberine in our article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/substancje/berberyna In conclusion, before including a berberine supplement, I encourage you to consult a doctor. Also, if the doctor has not determined the scheme of use of individual drugs, I encourage you to repeat the consultation.
