Plant Sterol Supplements

[Fusion5]

I have just started taking these in an effort to get my cholesterol to an acceptable level.

I take Thyroxine and Magnesium/B vitamin supplements and Omega 3 .

Would there be any inter actions ? I have googled but can't find anything.

If Sqad is looking in, I also have Gilbert's Syndrome.

TIA

No, I cannot see how there could be a problem with the medication that you have outlined, either on the basis of drug interaction or your underlying liver problem.

I gather you have considered statins?.....;-)

Morning Sqad, I can't take statins they don't agree with me.

Hope you are feeling better.

[Sqad]

LOL...thanks i am fine.

O.K about the statins, I quite understand.

Ezetrol is not a statin and it lowers cholesterol.

I have read Ezetrol works similarly to Plant Sterols. When googling it said if you are taking Ezetrol don't take Plant Stenrols as they work similarly, though you can take statins with plant sterols.

;-).......O.K Fusion.
