A member asked:
Please advise if it's okay to do a mild colon cleanse (with herbs in it) if you are taking high blood pressure medicine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Colon cleanse: A mild colon cleanse such as a prep for GI procedure usually isn't a problem but doesn't have 'herbs' associated. The risk comes in placing unknown 'herbs' into the colon where they could be absorbed and cause problems.
