Can Nutracid be used in cardiac patients?

Patients with cardiac disease can take Nutracid as prescribed by the doctor. However, Nutracid can interact with certain drugs (e.g clopidogrel, digoxin) which might be used by a patient with an underlying cardiac disease. Patients taking Nutracid and digoxin may need to be monitored for digoxin toxicity. Nutracid decreases the activation of clopidogrel, thus reducing its effects. Patients taking these medicines together need to be monitored closely by a doctor.
