I read Sue's post with interest as I take turmeric as does a friend who also takes Eliquis. Then found this article in the The New York Times about a patient who took the supplement and blood thinners and was negatively affected.

The service pharmacists can subscribe to for information at the University of Illinois at Chicago, Drug Information Group interesting sounds interesting to me. I wonder if they are a resource for more in-depth questions about meds and how to use them than the standard package insert that comes with a filled prescription.

Different brands of OTC supplements have different levels of bioavailability. Could be hers is useless and thus no effect from Eliquis.
