Potential Herb/Drug Interactions

Lithium: Consumption of nettle leaf (urtica dioica) when taken alongside lithium has a theoretical increased risk of drug toxicity due to nettle leaf’s potential diuretic activity, which may reduce lithium excretion and increase the risk of lithium toxicity. Monitoring is essential.
Antidiabetic/hypoglycaemic drugs: Consumption of nettle leaf (urtica dioica), elder flower (sambucus nigra), and eyebright (euphrasia officinalis) when taken alongside antidiabetic/hypoglycaemic drugs has a theoretical risk of additive effects due to potential antidiabetic/hypoglycaemic activity. Monitoring is essential.
Diuretic drugs: Consumption of nettle leaf (urtica dioica) and golden rod (solidago virgaurea) when taken alongside diuretic drugs has a theoretical risk of increased potassium loss (hypokalaemia) based on the potential for increased potassium loss with the overuse of nettle leaf. Nettle leaf should be restricted to short-term use in some cases, and monitoring is essential.
Warfarin: Consumption of nettle leaf (urtica dioica) when taken alongside warfarin has a theoretical antagonistic effect due to the vitamin K content in nettle leaf which may theoretically act as an antagonist to Warfarin. Caution must be taken with this combination.
Antihypertensive drugs: Consumption of nettle leaf (urtica dioica) when taken alongside antihypertensive drugs has a theoretical risk of additive effects due to nettle leaf’s potential hypotensive activity. Monitoring is essential.
Immunosuppressant drugs: Consumption of elder flower (sambucus nigra) when taken alongside immunosuppressant drugs may theoretically reduce drug efficacy due to elder flower’s potential immunostimulant activity. Monitoring is essential.
