WAR.NING: STOP Taking These Pills If You Have High Bl00d Pressure

Licorice root, ginseng, ephedra, and even St. John’s Wort can interfere with BP medications or raise pressure on their own. “Natural” doesn’t always mean safe.

💡 What You Should Do:

Examine the label before taking any OTC medication. Look for warn.ings about high bl00d pressure.

Meet your doctor or pharmacist before beginning a new  supplement or cold remedy.

Monitor your bl00d pressure regularly—especially after adding anything new to your routine.

Your heart doesn’t get a break just because you’re treating a headache or stuffy nose. Every pill you take affects your body in some way—don’t let one undo all your progress.

👉 If in doubt, ask yourself: “Is this pill helping me… or putting me at risk?”
