Guest guest Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 Dear All A snippet from a commercial site . I didn't ever see anything like this on the" site that must not be named" let alone the package insert of the eprosartan I was taking in elephantine amounts. Regards Windsor THE “SARTANS” (Micardis HCT®, Diovan HCT®) The sartan drugs (including candesartan, irbesartan, losartan, telmisartan, and valsartan) are used to reduce elevated blood pressure. All are used in conjunction with hydrochlorothiazide, a diuretic. Which Nutrients Are Robbed Taking these medicines may deplete your supply of, increase your need for, or interfere with the activity of: magnesium phosphorus potassium sodium zinc coenzyme Q10 Restoring the Nutrient Balance Speak to your physician about taking 1500 mg of magnesium, 700 mg of phosphorus, 50-100 mg of zinc, and 100-300 mg of coenzyme Q10. Ask your physician to consider the effects of sodium depletion, as well as to monitor your potassium status. You can also eat foods that contain the depleted nutrients. http://www.lef.org/magazine/mag2006/mar2006_report_drugs_02.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
