Contraindications, Interactions, and Side Effects (Garlic) — Class 2c (AHP). Some thiol-
bearing compounds in garlic, onion, and their relatives can cause acantholysis in vitro (Brenner
et al., 1995) and possibly pemphigus in vivo. “More than 5 cloves a day may induce gas and
heartburn (Castleman, 1996) and ‘thin blood’” (people taking blood thinners may thereby over-
thin their blood). “May potentiate the effect of antihypertensive and anticoagulant medications”
