Some vitamins and herbs are not recommended with certain med's. Some over the counter tablets don't mix if you have a-fib. It's best to check with your doctor or cardio if B12 and cranberry tablets are safe to take.

It might be worth asking at the pharmist too. I've always found them to be very helpful and often have a better idea of what mixes, and what doesn't, than my GP.

I take a B12 daily via a spray for better absorbent , also D3 and have done for a few years and during that time I have been on Rivaroxiban along with either Flecainide , Sotalol and more recently Bisoprolol and haven't had any side effects, but I wholeheartedly agree with Paulboumce about checking with your pharmacy as I did originally and have done recently for Glucosamine tablets, our local pharmacy is brilliant and so hopeful in all areas and they never rush you!!
