Q: I take Lipitor. Do I still need a krill oil supplement?

Posted By under Heart Health , , ,

A: Well as a Sea Captain I never had time to go to med school. Or pharmacy school. You really need to ask that to someone who did. Preferably someone who graduated, and passed whatever licensing exam you have to pass. And is currently employed as either a Doctor or Pharmacist. That would be my advice.

Q: Are there any drug interaction issues with krill oil?

Posted By under Safety & Interactions ,

A: Yes there are. Those taking aspirin, warfarin, ibuprofen, heparin, enoxaparin and diclofenac may find that blood clotting is slowed. Taking both krill oil and aspirin or other blood thinning medication at the same time can result in bloodshot eyes and impaired blood clotting. Krill oil should not be taken a few weeks prior to surgery due to its blood thinning action. During this time, foods higher in vitamin K, such as kale, should be added to the diet to encourage proper blood clotting. After surgery and healing, krill oil can be safely added back into your healthy living routine. We recommend speaking with your healthcare provider before taking this, or any other supplement.
