To be honest only your GP or cardiologist can answer this as they know your medical history and what medications you are on. Use of evening primrose oil is discouraged if patients are taking aspirin, blood thinners or anticoagulants as it effects blood clotting. People are also advised not to take it for two weeks pre surgery as besides blood clotting there may be issues with anaesthesia. I suspect you should not take it!
Okay thank you for your advice will ask at my next appointment
There is some evidence that magnesium can help with ectopic beats. Again though check it would be compatible with both your problem and other meds. Do a YouTube search on 'magnesium for ectopic beats' and there are some explanations from Cardiologists.
Speak with your pharmacist , they are more knowledgeable re. drug contraindications than a GP.
