No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Amaranth and Evinacumab-Dgnb 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.

Amaranth and Evinacumab-Dgnb

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 Evinacumab-Dgnb and Amaranth 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.

Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Amaranth at all — not against Evinacumab-Dgnb, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.

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.

What Evinacumab-Dgnb Is Prescribed For, and What Amaranth Has Been Studied For

These two come up together because they touch the same health topic — not because they do the same job. Evinacumab-Dgnb is a prescription medicine with approved uses on its FDA label. Amaranth is a supplement: what follows is what researchers have looked at it for, and how strong that evidence is.

Amaranth has been studied for:

  • Hypercholesterolemia studied, not established Amaranth has been studied for this. Natural Medicines rates the evidence: Possibly Ineffective Read what the research shows

    Amaranth for hypercholesterolemia

    Preliminary clinical research shows that eating muffins made with amaranth flour or taking oral doses of amaranth oil 3-18 mL daily while following a reduced fat diet for 3-4 weeks does not reduce serum cholesterol levels more than the reduced fat diet alone.

Effectiveness ratings and the research summaries above are the verbatim record from the Natural Medicines database, which grades evidence from “Effective” down to “Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate”. A rating below the top of that scale means researchers have looked at it — not that it works, and never that it can stand in for a prescribed medicine. Do not stop or replace Evinacumab-Dgnb on your own; if you are taking Amaranth for the same health topic, tell your prescriber, especially if the medicine is being adjusted to a target.

About Amaranth

What is Amaranth?

Amaranth
  • Nutrition and as a gluten-free grain
  • High cholesterol
  • Diarrhea and digestive upset
  • Mouth and throat irritation (gargle)
  • Wound and skin care (traditional)

Amaranth is a nutritious plant whose seeds are used as a gluten-free pseudocereal and whose leaves are eaten as a vegetable. It is generally considered safe as a food, but evidence for its medicinal benefits (such as lowering cholesterol) is limited and mostly preliminary. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using concentrated supplements.

Amaranthus spp. · Amaranthaceae · Leaves, seeds, seed oil, roots, and whole plant · Seeds and flour (pseudocereal), leafy vegetable, seed oil, capsules, powders, and teas

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

Amaranth: dosing

There is no established standardized medicinal dose for amaranth. As a food, it is simply prepared and eaten like other grains or leafy vegetables.If you choose a supplement, oil, or capsule, follow the directions on the product label, since the amount of active ingredients can vary widely between products.

About Evinacumab-dgnb Injection

What Is Evinacumab-dgnb Injection Used For?

Brand name: Evkeeza

  • Evinacumab-dgnb is used in combination with other treatments to reduce the amount low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol ('bad cholesterol') and other fatty substances in the blood in adults and children 12 years of age or older that have homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH; an inherited condition in which cholesterol cannot be removed from the body normally). Evinacumab-dgnb is in a class of medications called angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) inhibitor monoclonal antibodies. It works by decreasing the production of LDL cholesterol and increasing the breakdown of LDL cholesterol and other fatty substances in the body.

  • Accumulation of cholesterol and fats along the walls of your arteries (a process known as atherosclerosis) decreases blood flow and, therefore, the oxygen supply to your heart, brain, and other parts of your body. Lowering your blood level of cholesterol and fats may help prevent heart disease, angina (chest pain), strokes, and heart attacks.
