Yup. Vinegar should not be taken by people who use the following medications: Hypoglycemics (metformin, glibenclamide), which lower blood sugar levels. If you add vinegar, which has the same effect, it can cause hypoglycemia. Insulin: for the same reason as hypoglycemic drugs Digoxin: May cause arrhythmia. Diuretics: because they cause a decrease in pressure, as well as apple cider vinegar, which can lower it too much. In addition, the combination of the two can cause arrhythmia.
