I am taking a very low dose of coumidin, I have read that milk thistle can thin your blood, could this be a problem for me?
I am wanting to take milk thistle for improving my liver. My encymes are higher than they should be, and I have fat around my liver.
Please don't reccomend I ask my Dr. she wouldn't know.
Thanks
Becky

Thanks for the question Becky,
  Red clover is a blood thinner, but I have never seen Milk Thistle have this effect.  The red clover in our formula should not interact with low doses of coumidin unless you take a lot of the extract (like 10 times our suggested dose).  I hope that this helps answer your question.
