Can You Take Magnesium and Nattokinase Together?
Dose or timing may matter
The short answer
Magnesium lowers blood pressure via vasodilation while nattokinase has fibrinolytic and mild hypotensive effects. Combined use may cause additive BP reduction.
How to arrange timing
Generally well-tolerated. Monitor blood pressure if taking both at higher doses.

Important context
Whether supplements suit you together also depends on dose, product formulation, health conditions, and medication use. Ask a doctor or pharmacist first if you take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a chronic condition.
