Check with your doctor or pharmacist.
Check your private message dman...i refered a website on there that is for cardiac athletes. Its helpful for guys like you and me!
Don't take anything with caffeine or other stimulants in it. A protein product and creatine is probably all you need. Since your on an ACE inhibitor, make sure your kidney function is good before taking creatine.
Dman,
Rhinoclan is absolutely correct. Without intending any offense to any of the other forum members, do not accept another forum members suggestions of what may be okay to mix with your meds. Go see your doctor. And, make sure that your doctor is up to speed on this subject. Because nutritional supplements fall under different regulatory requirements there is a lack of study on drug interactions.
I strongly urge you to seek qualified professional assistance for this type of question.
