Probably not - (you need the nutrients in PT to exist) but most CVD patients are on statin drugs, and according to research, there can be a big problem taking statin drugs and a common antibiotic!
Richard Cenedella, Ph.D., announced today that a recent multinational scientific study supports his hypothesis that brief exposure to very high levels of some statins may irreversibly damage the lens of the eye. The study by Christopher Meier's of the University Hospital of Basel, Switzerland, suggests that taking the antibiotic erythromycin in combination with the popular statin-cholesterol lowering drugs may increase the risk of cataracts. Erythromycin slows removal of most statins from the body and can greatly increase blood levels of these drugs. The study results published in Archives of Internal Medicine, indicate that a single course of antibiotic, typically 10 days, appeared to double the risk of cataracts and two or more courses tripled the risk.
