The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Avocado and Eprosartan 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.

Avocado and Eprosartan

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 Eprosartan and Avocado 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.

Avocado safety at a glance

Avocado overall Generally safe Avocado is widely eaten and considered safe as a food for most people.
Pregnancy Use caution Avocado as a food is fine, but concentrated supplements or extracts have not been well studied in pregnancy.
Breastfeeding Use caution Eating avocado is generally fine, but the safety of concentrated supplements while breastfeeding is unknown.

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

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Eprosartan

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Eprosartan is filed under 3 classifications — angiotensin receptor blockers (arbs), antihypertensive drugs, oral drugs. Avocado has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being warfarin (coumadin) (moderate) — and none of Eprosartan’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

What Avocado Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Eprosartan. It is the side-effect record for Avocado on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Avocado, this list is the first place to look. 2 entries are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • A higher chance of infection Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Orally, avocado can cause acute food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES). This is a rare, delayed, non-IgE-mediated gastrointestinal food hypersensitivity reaction most often reported in infants and young children. Symptoms of FPIES include excessive vomiting within 1-4 hours of avocado consumption and diarrhea.”

  • An allergic reaction Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Orally, avocado has been generally well tolerated in clinical research.

    Most Common Adverse Effects:

    Topically: A cream containing avocado oil in combination with vitamin B12 can cause itching.

    Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):

    Orally: Avocado may lead to allergic cross-sensitivity in latex sensitive patients.”

    Recorded for Avocado in the same Natural Medicines adverse-effect record shown under A higher chance of infection above.

  • Itching Additional detail

    “Topically, a cream containing avocado oil in combination with vitamin B12 can cause itching when applied initially, but itching appears to diminish with continued use. Orally, avocado may cause skin rash.”

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Avocado — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We haven’t matched Eprosartan to its FDA label in our system yet, so we can’t compare its own side-effect list here — the leaflet that comes with your prescription is the authoritative list for Eprosartan.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Eprosartan

This page covers Avocado only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Eprosartan page lists 138 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), American Hellebore (major), American Mistletoe (major), Tyramine (major) and Adrafinil (moderate).

By severity: 4 major · 112 moderate · 22 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Eprosartan page

“Activated charcoal deserves the first look from anyone taking eprosartan (Teveten) for blood pressure, because it can soak up the medicine in the gut and leave less of your dose to do its job. It is one of four major-rated entries among the 138 supplements and herbs on this page, enough to warrant real wariness rather than a shrug.”

About Avocado

What is Avocado?

Avocado
  • Heart and cholesterol health
  • Osteoarthritis (as ASU)
  • General nutrition and healthy fats
  • Skin and hair care
  • Blood sugar support

Avocado is a nutritious fruit rich in healthy monounsaturated fats, fiber, and potassium, and eating it as part of a balanced diet may support heart health. A specific extract called avocado/soybean unsaponifiables (ASU) has been studied for osteoarthritis, but evidence is mixed. As a food it is very safe for most people; talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using concentrated supplements.

Persea americana · Lauraceae · Fruit pulp, oil, seed, and leaves · Whole fruit, avocado oil, capsules (avocado/soybean unsaponifiables or ASU), powders

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

Avocado: dosing

There is no official standardized dose of avocado, since it is mainly eaten as a food. A common serving is part of a whole fruit, eaten as part of a balanced diet.For supplements such as ASU, the right amount depends on the specific product, so it is best to follow the directions on the label.

About Eprosartan

What Is Eprosartan Used For?

Brand name: Teveten

  • Eprosartan is used alone or in combination with other medications to treat high blood pressure. Eprosartan is in a class of medications called angiotensin II receptor antagonists. It works by blocking the action of certain natural substances that tighten the blood vessels, allowing the blood to flow more smoothly and the heart to pump more efficiently.

  • High blood pressure is a common condition, and when not treated it can cause damage to the brain, heart, blood vessels, kidneys, and other parts of the body. Damage to these organs may cause heart disease, a heart attack, heart failure, stroke, kidney failure, loss of vision, and other problems. In addition to taking medication, making lifestyle changes will also help to control your blood pressure. These changes include eating a diet that is low in fat and salt, maintaining a healthy weight, exercising at least 30 minutes most days, not smoking, and using alcohol in moderation.
