Diabetes Medications
Taking fenugreek with
diabetes medications may increase the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). If you take
diabetes medications, be sure to check with your healthcare provider before taking fenugreek. You may need to monitor your blood sugar more closely, and your healthcare provider may need to adjust the dose of your diabetes medications.
