That is DOES mess with such drugs !!!!The research and resources on Black Cohosh find that it CAN lower B/P and heart rate in some indivduals. If you take meds that are doing that ... the action of the Black Cohosh, in addition to those med's action, could make for *TOO* much of what you're going for. I don't know the exact means of how the herb does this, but it is cautioned to watch for undesired lowering of both if you're on such meds. Just what I found when I researched before taking it.
