That statement is too general to be accurate on its own.
Some medications can increase the risk of blood clots or heart problems, but it depends entirely on which tablets you mean, the dose, and the person using them. For example:
- Certain hormonal contraceptives (birth control pills) can slightly increase clot risk in some people.
- Some hormone therapies (like estrogen treatment) may also raise risk.
- A few other medicines in specific conditions can affect clotting or heart risk, especially in people with pre-existing conditions.
But many common tablets do not cause blood clots or heart attacks at all.
If you saw this warning on a box, label, or social media post, it would help to know:
- The name of the tablets
- What they’re used for
- Who is taking them (age/condition matters)
Then I can tell you whether that warning is actually relevant or exaggerated.
