Interactions for Vitamin E

Possible Interactions with Vitamin E

Overview

Taking vitamin E at the same time as warfarin, a blood-thinning medication, increases the risk of abnormal bleeding.

A class of cholesterol-lowering medications called bile-acid sequestrants (such as colestipol and cholestyramine) diminishes the absorption of vitamin E.

Vitamin E interacts with cyclosporine, a medication used for the treatment of cancer, reducing the effectiveness of both this supplement and this medication.
