Is it ok to take st johns' wort with high blood pressure?

This depends if you are on medication.
St Johns Wort will not affect your blood pressure and is safe to take with high blood pressure but it can interact with some medication used to treat high blood pressure.
If you are not taking anything, then go ahead, but if you are on medication, consult a qualified Herbalist who will have a look at your medication and suggest suitable doses. Source(s): I am a Qualified Medical Herbalist.
Type in St John's Wort high blood pressure in Yahoo search and you should come up with a site which will tell you.
i have heard st john's wort is bad for your liver, check it out online before you take it.
I would try taking it with water first
I take it every day.

I'm still here aren't I?
Its bad when taken along with certain other medicines ...some of which are for high blood pressure. Check with your doctor.
