Lipo-6 Interactions

If certain medications are combined with Lipo-6, interactions could occur. For example, taking it with breast cancer medications, estrogen-containing hormone replacement therapy, or antidepressants could increase your risk of side effects or lead to a potentially dangerous heart arrhythmia. To avoid these and other problems, ask your pharmacist or healthcare provider about the Lipo-6 interactions that may apply to you.

 

An Introduction to Lipo-6 Interactions

Very little information is available about possible Lipo-6™ drug interactions. Based on the information that is available about a few of the individual components of Lipo-6, it is assumed that the supplement will interact with certain medicines. Some of the medicines that may lead to Lipo-6 interactions include:
 
 
 
  • QT-prolonging medications (medications that increase the risk of a dangerous irregular heart rhythm known as QT prolongation)
  • Theophylline (Uniphyl®, Theocron®, TheoCap®, Theo-24®, Elixophyllin®).
