When to seek emergency help: Severe bleeding that does not stop, blood in vomit, sudden severe headache, vision changes, confusion, or weakness on one side of the body (possible internal bleeding or stroke).
No urgent need to discuss, but always keep your doctor informed of your full supplement and medication list. An up-to-date list helps them make the best treatment decisions.
