Detailed Answer:
Hello!
Welcome on HCM!
Regarding your concern, I would like to explain that no proven adverse interactions have been noticed in medical literature that contraindicate the use of apple cider vinegar while on chronic therapy with Atorvastatin and Diltiazem.
So, you don't have to worry about this issue.
On my personal professional opinion, I would not overestimate any potential beneficial effects of apple vinegar and would not recommend use of increased daily doses (out of a normal and balanced dietary schedule).
Hope to have been helpful to you!
In case of any further uncertainties, feel free to ask me again.
Kind regards,
Dr. Iliri
