Interaction Details
There were no interactions found between Lioresal and Fenugreek. This does not mean the potential for an interaction does not exist, however. There is often a lack of studies and data surrounding traditional medicine, especially concerning drug interactions, so it is important to always consult your provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.
Pharmacist Analysis
Fenugreek is generally considered relatively safe in regard to potential drug interactions.
Nevertheless, interactions are possible between fenugreek and:
- 'Blood-thinning' drugs
- Drugs that lower blood pressure
- Drugs that low blood sugar
Fenugreek contains some components that can prevent blood from clotting. However, there is not enough research to confirm whether the amount of these components present in common fenugreek products can have a clinically significant effect.
Fenugreek may also have an additive effect with blood sugar-lowering medication and blood pressure-lowering medication.
All of these potential interactions are documented individually on our specific drug-herbal interaction pages.

Lioresal Overview
-
Baclofen is used to treat pain and certain types of spasticity (muscle stiffness and tightness) from multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injuries, or other spinal cord diseases. Baclofen is in a class of medications called skeletal muscle relaxants. Baclofen acts on the spinal cord nerves and decreases the number and severity of muscle spasms caused by multiple sclerosis or spinal cord conditions. It also relieves pain and improves muscle movement.
