Medically reviewed by · Updated June 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 20, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Alchemilla and Lurasidone in our sources. Absence of a documented interaction is not the same as proven safety, and does not guarantee one does not exist. Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the label for Lurasidone states a food rule worth keeping to.

Alchemilla and Lurasidone

We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.

No Known Interaction Found

We did not find a documented interaction between Lurasidone and Alchemilla in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.

If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.

Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Lurasidone

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Lurasidone is filed under 4 classifications — including antipsychotic drugs, seizure threshold lowering drugs, cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) substrates. Alchemilla has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being topical drugs (minor) — and none of Lurasidone’s classifications are among them.

Classification data comes from our licensed Natural Medicines dataset. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded there, so this describes how the check was run — it is not a safety guarantee.

What Lurasidone’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Alchemilla. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Lurasidone’s own FDA label, for the medication by itself. Knowing the drug’s own list makes it easier to work out the likely cause if something new turns up while you take both. 9 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Mania or an unusually elevated mood Worth acting on
  • Thoughts of self-harm Worth acting on
  • Trouble swallowing Worth acting on
  • Hallucinations Worth acting on
  • Fainting Worth acting on
  • Seizures Worth acting on
  • Low mood Worth acting on
  • A low white blood cell count Worth acting on
  • A higher chance of infection Worth acting on
  • Increased appetite

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Lurasidone. Read the label on DailyMed › Alchemilla’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Alchemilla side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Alchemilla has no side effects.

How to take them

Some Lurasidone Products Have a Food Rule — Alchemilla Should Not Break It

At least one FDA label for a product containing Lurasidone says to take it with food. If you take Alchemilla on an empty stomach out of habit, keep them separate — and take Lurasidone with a meal where the label says to.

This may not be true of your version. Food instructions belong to the product, not the ingredient: two Lurasidone products can carry different directions, and extended-release forms often differ from immediate-release ones. The label we read is quoted below — check the directions on your own box or bottle, or ask your pharmacist, for how to take the exact product you were given.

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION LATUDA should be taken with food (at least 350 calories).

From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Lurasidone — where that label names a specific product, the instruction is that product's. Read the label on DailyMed ›

A food rule is not an interaction — it is about how much of the medicine you absorb. The directions that came with your own product, and your pharmacist, outrank anything on this page.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Lurasidone page

“Supplements deserve real scrutiny alongside lurasidone (Latuda), a medication for schizophrenia and bipolar depression that relies almost entirely on one liver enzyme, CYP3A4, to clear it. Grapefruit blocks that enzyme and can push lurasidone levels high enough to worsen side effects, while St.”

Where does our data come from?
  • Source: the Natural Medicines (TRC Healthcare) clinical database — the evidence-graded professional reference for herb & supplement interactions. Alchemilla is not yet covered by that licensed database, so its write-up cites publicly available medical sources directly (see the references below).
  • Citation library: 103,510 references behind our interaction content, 65,311 of them resolved to verified PubMed/DOI sources. See every Alchemilla reference on this page ↓

About Alchemilla

What is Alchemilla?

Alchemilla
  • Menstrual and women's health complaints
  • Diarrhea and digestive upset
  • Wound healing (topical)
  • Skin moisturizing (topical)
  • Mild inflammation

Alchemilla (lady's mantle) is a European herb traditionally used for digestive complaints, women's health issues, and as an astringent for skin and wounds. Solid human research is very limited, so its benefits remain largely unproven, and it should be avoided in pregnancy and breastfeeding due to a lack of safety data.

Alchemilla vulgaris · Rosaceae · Above-ground parts (leaves and flowering tops) · Tea, tincture, dried herb, capsules, topical gels and creams

An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Alchemilla is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Alchemilla record says about it on its own.

Alchemilla: dosing

There is no well-established or standardized dose for Alchemilla, because it has not been studied enough in clinical trials. Traditional use often involves a tea made from the dried herb or a tincture, and topical products are applied to the skin.The best approach is to follow the directions on the product label and not exceed the recommended amount.

Taking Alchemilla and Lurasidone Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Alchemilla with Lurasidone?
We do not list a known interaction between Alchemilla and Lurasidone. That does not guarantee the combination is risk-free, so confirm with your pharmacist or doctor — especially if you take other medications or have a health condition.
Should I take Alchemilla and Lurasidone at the same time of day?
At least one FDA label for a product containing Lurasidone says to take it with food. If you take Alchemilla on an empty stomach out of habit, keep them separate and take Lurasidone with a meal where the label says to. Food instructions belong to the product rather than the ingredient — two Lurasidone products can differ — so check the directions on your own box. This is about absorption, not an interaction.
How was the Alchemilla and Lurasidone combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Lurasidone is filed under 4 classifications, and Alchemilla has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Lurasidone's classifications are among them. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded in our dataset, so this describes how the check was run rather than guaranteeing safety.
Does Alchemilla interact with any other medications?
Yes. Alchemilla has 198 documented drug interactions in our database — Lurasidone is simply not one of them. If you take anything else, it is worth checking each one; they are all listed on this page.
Does Lurasidone interact with any supplements?
Yes. Lurasidone has documented interactions with 149 supplements in our database — Alchemilla is not one of them. The Lurasidone interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
