Why this happens
Candesartan is a medication prescribed specifically to lower blood pressure. Cod liver oil contains omega-3 fatty acids, which have a natural, mild blood-pressure-lowering effect. When used together, these effects can add up (an additive effect).
What you should do
It is generally safe to take these together, but you should monitor your blood pressure regularly. If you feel dizzy, faint, or unusually tired, speak to your doctor or pharmacist. They may suggest adjusting the timing of your doses or checking your blood pressure more frequently.
