Is Nifedipine Safe In A 60 Year Old Woman?

I was recently prescribed Nefedipine for spasms related to my esophagus. I m a 60+ female with no history of high blood pressure. I ve taken the pills for 2 days. My question: is it safe to take this medication with nutritional supplements (over the counter vitamins, etc.)? Are there any foods, etc. that should be avoided when on this mediation?
