Interaction Details
There were no interactions found between Lanreotide and Hemp Agrimony. 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.
Hemp Agrimony Overview
Hemp agrimony (Eupatorium cannabinum) is a flowering plant that belongs to the aster family (Asteraceae). It has hairy, serrated leaves and small, pinkish-purple flowers that bloom in clusters. The plant gets its name from the fact that it has a fibrous stem, which was once used to make hemp rope.
Hemp agrimony has been used medicinally for centuries, and it is believed to have astringent, diuretic, and tonic properties. It is sometimes used to treat digestive disorders, such as diarrhea and dysentery, and it is also used to treat respiratory conditions, such as bronchitis and asthma.
It is important to note that hemp agrimony is not the same as marijuana (Cannabis sativa) and does not contain significant amounts of the psychoactive THC. Additionally, the use of hemp agrimony as a medicine generally isn't recommended as it may contain liver-toxic pyrrolizidine alkaloid (PA) constituents.
