Interaction Details
There were no interactions found between Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Magnesium Hydroxide and Alchemilla. 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.
Alchemilla Overview
Alchemilla, a perennial herb found throughout Europe, is traditionally used orally for gastrointestinal issues, inflammation, and as a diuretic. Its above-ground parts are also used topically for their astringent properties. Alchemilla contains 6-16% tannins (ellagic and gallic acids) and 2.22% flavonoids (quercetin, luteolin, and proanthocyanidins).
Studies show that alchemilla's aqueous extracts have antioxidant effects, countering lipid peroxidation and scavenging superoxide anions. In dermatology, alchemilla extracts inhibit proteolytic enzymes and promote fibroblast migration, potentially aiding in wound healing. A small human study suggests that alchemilla extract in gels improves skin moisturization, particularly when skin is pre-treated with drying agents like sodium laurel sulfate, although the exact mechanism is unclear.
Most dietary supplements that contain Alchemilla refer to it solely as 'Lady's Mantle'.
Aluminum Hydroxide, Aspirin, Magnesium Hydroxide Overview
-
Prescription aspirin is used to relieve the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (arthritis caused by swelling of the lining of the joints), osteoarthritis (arthritis caused by breakdown of the lining of the joints), systemic lupus erythematosus (condition in which the immune system attacks the joints and organs and causes pain and swelling) and certain other rheumatologic conditions (conditions in which the immune system attacks parts of the body). Nonprescription aspirin is used to reduce fever and to relieve mild to moderate pain from headaches, menstrual periods, arthritis, toothaches, and muscle aches. Nonprescription aspirin is also used to prevent heart attacks in people who have had a heart attack in the past or who have angina (chest pain that occurs when the heart does not get enough oxygen). Nonprescription aspirin is also used to reduce the risk of death in people who are experiencing or who have recently experienced a heart attack. Nonprescription aspirin is also used to prevent ischemic strokes (strokes that occur when a blood clot blocks the flow of blood to the brain) or mini-strokes (strokes that occur when the flow of blood to the brain is blocked for a short time) in people who have had this type of stroke or mini-stroke in the past. Aspirin will not prevent hemorrhagic strokes (strokes caused by bleeding in the brain). Aspirin is in a group of medications called salicylates. It works by stopping the production of certain natural substances that cause fever, pain, swelling, and blood clots.
