Green tea can weaken the effects of a commonly prescribed blood pressure pill, experts warn.

That's interesting.

I know there are a few things that can interfere with medication but have only found out by accident like grapefruit juice is bad for antidepressants and warfrin.

Doctors don't seem to tell you these things.

I know a few people who drink green tea but don't know if they take blood pressure pills.
There is no way I would drink green tea, it looks like pond algae.
