When taking candesartan, you should avoid using potassium supplements or salt substitutes containing potassium, as these can increase the risk of hyperkalemia (high potassium levels in the blood). It's also advisable to avoid alcohol, as it can further lower your blood pressure and increase side effects like dizziness or fainting. Always consult with your healthcare provider about any other medications or substances you should avoid while taking candesartan.
