PROFESSIONAL FAQS: CAN I HAVE GARLIC IF I'M ALSO TAKING EZETIMIBE AND LOW-DOSE ASPIRIN?
Expert opinion from Mariana Brkic

Yes you can. Garlic is also a healthy food which has antioxidants that protect against chronic disease. The only food that is not recommended to be taken with these medications is alcohol. Other foods that may also interact with these medications are large doses of caffeine or grape juice.

There is no contraindication if this garlic consumption is within the daily recommendation of 8g/day (one large clove) distributed over meals in a day. What is not recommended is using garlic supplements without your doctor's knowledge.
