Cautions for use
Some of the medications to be particularly aware of are:
• Levothyroxine: Used to combat thyroid problems. Compounds in the moringa leaf may aid the thyroid function, but people should not take it in combination with other thyroid medication.
• Any medications that might be broken down by the liver: Moringa extract may decrease how quickly this happens, which could lead to various side effects or complications.
• Diabetes medications: DiabetesÂ
medications are used to lower blood
sugar, which moringa also doesÂ
effectively. It is vital to ensure blood
sugar levels do not get too low.
• High blood pressure medication:
Moringa has shown to be effective at
lowering blood pressure. Taking moringa alongside other drugs that lower blood pressure may result in it becoming too low.
• Not suitable for pregnant women
