ASPIRIN AND HERBAL MEDICINES OR DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS GINKGO BILOBA

An isolated report describes spontaneous bleeding from the iris associated with the use of aspirin 325 mg daily with a Ginkgo biloba extract.
The evidence is too slim to forbid patients from taking aspirin and Ginkgo biloba concurrently, but some do recommend caution. This seems prudent as caution is generally recommended with antiplatelet drugs, and bleeding has been seen with the use of Ginkgo biloba alone Medical professionals should be aware of the possibility of increased bleeding tendency with Ginkgo biloba.
