1 interaction related to phthalides
Celery contains phthalides (including 3-n-butylphthalide), nitrate, and potassium that relax blood vessels and have a mild blood-pressure-lowering effect demonstrated in a human trial of celery seed extract. Drinking celery juice regularly can add to the effect of antihypertensive drugs such as ACE inhibitors, ARBs, calcium channel blockers, and diuretics, potentially pushing blood pressure lower than intended.
