D3 regimen and Calcium blockers?

[Nikkk]

Hi again everyone,

sorry if i'm over sharing on here lately, i'm just getting out of a cycle after having been pain free for years and so i'm going again down the research rabbit hole..

I personally respond generally really well to mushrooms busting and D3 regimen seems to help too;

However due to high blood pressure i'm taking alpha and calcium blockers daily for 2yrs now, Isoptin retard 120mg, and losartan 50mg. 

My question is: can it cause issues one way or the other to use calcium blockers while doing the D3 regimen?

When addressing it to my doctor, he was just surprised by the amounts of supplements but he said that it's all green light by him, and that the calcium blockers aren't an issue there.

Thanks in advance,

<3

There was a time when Batch suggested that people should take the calcium in the D3 regimen as far apart as possible from any calcium channel blocker meds.   I haven't seen that lately in his guidance.  (I think it's also true that in the early days there was a separate calcium pill that was part of the regimen, but now it's just what's included in the multivitamin, I think.)

@CHfather thank you for your response;

If I understand correctly you mean that if I take my calcium at 8am I should take the calcium blocker at 20pm?

That seems right. As I say, this is just what I remember.  Looking back, I see this post from a well-informed member in 2015: "People taking verapamil (calcium channel blocker), for instance, do not necessarily need to take calcium supplements as they do not play well together.  If you do take both, then you need to take them far enough apart daily so that they do not interfere with each other."

Maybe @Craigo can comment.

@CHfather thank you!

Ill try to get some bloodwork done soon to see where i'm at. I was just surprised that my doctor seemed to not see any issues here though.
