Can i really eat anything with emsam 6mg? i am 5'7 with 138 pounds. my blood pressure is low (10/6). i don't eat a lot. no diet is ok?

Food is ok: Emsam can lower BP - tell your doctor if you're getting frequent or severe dizzy spells. Don't use over the counter decongestants, diet pills, or herbal remedies like st. John's wort. Most any food is okay. Your body mass index, based on your height and weight, is 21.5 which is absolutely perfect!
