Af medication and vitamin D

Hi all

 I take Dronedarone and have noticed when I take vitamins and in particular vitamin D that it can interfere with the efficacy of the drug. I asked my GP and Pharmacist and they both have said that it shouldn't do so.  I have stopped taking the vitamin D and am back regular again.  I conclude that everyone is different and that I have to do what works for me. Any comments?

That's interesting that you've found vitamin D affects you in this way. I believe you totally as I have lots of little strange quirks like this. Your vitamin D tablets didn't contain Maltodextrin by any chance did they? Only I find if I take anything with this in it makes my heart rate worse.
