Benefits vs. Risks of Green Tea:
2007 Mar Possible Controversy over Dietary Polyphenols: Benefits vs Risks
2009 Feb Green tea polyphenols block the anticancer effects of bortezomib and other boronic acid-based proteasome inhibitors.
Green Tea Drug Interactions (see Sloan Kettering below):
Adenosine: The caffeine content in green tea may inhibit the hemodynamic effects of adenosine (18).
Anticoagulants / Antiplatelets: Theoretically, consumption of large amounts of green tea (.5-1 gallon/day) may provide enough vitamin K to antagonize the effects of anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents, though this effect has not been reported in humans (29) (34).
Atropine: The tannin content in green tea may reduce the absorption of atropine.
Iron supplements: The tannin content in green tea may reduce the bioavailability of iron. Green tea should be taken either 2 hours before or 4 hours following iron administration.
Codeine: The tannin content in green tea may reduce the absorption of codeine (18).
Bortezomib: EGCG and other polyphenols in green tea can inhibit the therapeutic effect of bortezomib (Velcade®) and other boronic acid based proteasome inhibitors
