Aenica Montana safety concerns!

Is arnica montana safe to use? I am concerned because my husband is taking a homeopathic formula which contains arnica montana, but I just read where it can cause medications for blood pressure to be less effective and could cause mouth sores, shortness of breath and other potentially dangerous side-effects. I read it on:

Is it dangerous for him to take anything which contains Arnica Montana? I wasn't sure, because I thought, at lower doses, homeopathic remedies were safe.

The product in question is:

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
You may like to know that I have used Arnica Montana 6 and 30c daily for the last 11 years and have no doubt at all that it is the reason for my wellness at my advanced age of 76 years. My BP is 120/80 with pulse 65.

You can safely let your husband take this remedy and it will only do him good. I presume that he suffers from Hypertension and Arnica is easily the remedy of choice for this ailment.

It cannot possibly cause the ailments you listed:
'mouth sores, shortness of breath and other potentially dangerous side-effects'

Arnica can only help to control them and many other ailments that I have listed in a post under 'Arnica the Miracle Remedy ' on this forum.

I don't see anywhere in the article that it attributes any adverse side effects to homeopathic arnica, only to herbal arnica.
