Why this happens
These mushrooms contain compounds called beta-glucans and other chemicals that can improve insulin sensitivity and inhibit platelets (the cells that help your blood clot). When combined, these effects can be additive.
What you should do
It is usually fine to eat these as part of a normal diet. However, if you are taking concentrated supplements, you should use caution. Monitor your blood sugar levels closely if you have diabetes, and watch for signs of easy bruising or bleeding. If you have an upcoming surgery, stop taking these supplements at least two weeks beforehand.

Traitement et médicaments
Can I take Amlopadine and Atorvastatin together?
Taking amlodipine and atorvastatin together can increase the amount of atorvastatin in your blood. This may increase the risk of side effects, particularly muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness (a condition called myopathy). In rare cases, this can lead to a more serious muscle breakdown called rhabdomyolysis.

Taking amitriptyline and ramipril together can cause your blood pressure to drop lower than intended. This is most common when you first start the medication or when your dose is increased. You may feel dizzy, lightheaded, or faint, especially when standing up quickly from a sitting or lying position.
