Drug & supplement interaction

Alpha-lipoic Acid + Berotralstat Hydrochloride

Berotralstat Hydrochloride brand name: Orladeyo.

No Known Interaction

Medically reviewed by Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 20, 2026

The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Alpha-lipoic Acid and Berotralstat Hydrochloride 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 Berotralstat Hydrochloride states a food rule worth keeping to, and the two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.

Interaction report

Alpha-lipoic Acid and Berotralstat Hydrochloride

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 Berotralstat Hydrochloride and Alpha-lipoic Acid 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.

Alpha-lipoic Acid safety at a glance

Alpha-lipoic Acid overall Use caution Generally well tolerated in most adults, but it can lower blood sugar and is best used under medical guidance.

Pregnancy Avoid There is not enough reliable safety information, so it is best to avoid during pregnancy.

Breastfeeding Avoid There is not enough reliable safety information, so it is best to avoid while breastfeeding.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Berotralstat Hydrochloride

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Berotralstat Hydrochloride is filed under 5 classifications — including cytochrome p450 2d6 (cyp2d6) inhibitors, qt interval-prolonging drugs, cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) inhibitors. Alpha-lipoic Acid has documented interactions with 5 drug classes — the most serious being alkylating agents (moderate), anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs (moderate) and antitumor antibiotics (moderate) — and none of Berotralstat Hydrochloride’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 to actually watch for

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Alpha-lipoic Acid and Berotralstat Hydrochloride May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

This is not an interaction. Neither one changes how your body handles the other, and nothing here says they react together. What our sources do show is that each has separately been linked to the effects below — so taking both can make those effects more likely to turn up, and harder to pin on one or the other if they do.

Heartburn / Vomiting Additional detail
Alpha-lipoic Acid
“Orally, heartburn, nausea, and vomiting have been reported after use of alpha-lipoic acid. Higher doses (1200-1800 mg daily) seem to cause more severe effects than lower doses (600 mg daily). Alpha-lipoic acid may also cause a burning sensation from the throat to the stomach, abdominal discomfort, or bitter taste when used orally.”

How to take them

Some Berotralstat Hydrochloride Products Have a Food Rule — Alpha-lipoic Acid Should Not Break It

At least one FDA label for a product containing Berotralstat Hydrochloride says to take it with food. If you take Alpha-lipoic Acid on an empty stomach out of habit, keep them separate — and take Berotralstat Hydrochloride 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 Berotralstat Hydrochloride 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 Recommended dosage in adult and pediatric patients aged 12 years and older: 150 mg capsule orally once daily with food.

From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Berotralstat Hydrochloride — 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.

About Alpha-lipoic Acid

What is Alpha-lipoic Acid?

Diabetic nerve pain (neuropathy)
Blood sugar support in diabetes
Antioxidant support
Liver health
Skin aging (topical and oral)

Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) is an antioxidant made naturally by the body and found in small amounts in foods. It is most studied for diabetic nerve pain, where some evidence suggests it may help, but evidence for most other uses is limited. It is generally well tolerated, but talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using it, especially if you have diabetes or thyroid problems.

Not applicable (a naturally occurring compound, not a plant part) · Capsules, tablets, softgels, and injectable forms (used in some countries)

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

Alpha-lipoic Acid: dosing

There is no single official or standardized dose of alpha-lipoic acid. Doses used in studies have varied widely depending on the condition and whether the oral or injectable form was used.The best approach is to follow the directions on the product label and choose a product from a reputable brand.

From our Alpha-lipoic Acid monograph — the full record covers uses, side effects and every documented interaction.

Taking Alpha-lipoic Acid and Berotralstat Hydrochloride Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Alpha-lipoic Acid with Berotralstat Hydrochloride?

We do not list a known interaction between Alpha-lipoic Acid and Berotralstat Hydrochloride. 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.

Do Alpha-lipoic Acid and Berotralstat Hydrochloride have any of the same side effects?

Yes — our sources link each of them separately to 3 of the same effects. That is not an interaction: neither changes how your body handles the other. It does mean that if one of those effects turns up, it can be harder to tell which one is behind it. They are listed on this page with the source behind each.

Should I take Alpha-lipoic Acid and Berotralstat Hydrochloride at the same time of day?

At least one FDA label for a product containing Berotralstat Hydrochloride says to take it with food. If you take Alpha-lipoic Acid on an empty stomach out of habit, keep them separate and take Berotralstat Hydrochloride with a meal where the label says to. Food instructions belong to the product rather than the ingredient — two Berotralstat Hydrochloride products can differ — so check the directions on your own box. This is about absorption, not an interaction.

How was the Alpha-lipoic Acid and Berotralstat Hydrochloride combination checked?

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Berotralstat Hydrochloride is filed under 5 classifications, and Alpha-lipoic Acid has documented interactions with 5 drug classes — none of Berotralstat Hydrochloride'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 Alpha-lipoic Acid interact with any other medications?

Yes. Alpha-lipoic Acid has 263 documented drug interactions in our database — Berotralstat Hydrochloride 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 Berotralstat Hydrochloride interact with any supplements?

Yes. Berotralstat Hydrochloride has documented interactions with 75 supplements in our database — Alpha-lipoic Acid is not one of them. The Berotralstat Hydrochloride interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
