Drug & supplement interaction

Boneset + Leniolisib

Leniolisib brand name: Joenja.

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

We found no known interaction between Boneset and Leniolisib 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 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.

Boneset and Leniolisib

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 Leniolisib and Boneset 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 Leniolisib

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Leniolisib is filed under 3 classifications — cytochrome p450 1a2 (cyp1a2) inhibitors, cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) substrates, oral drugs. Boneset has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) inducers (moderate) — and none of Leniolisib’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.

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Boneset and Leniolisib May Share a Side Effect

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.

    “Orally, boneset is reported to cause nausea and severe diarrhea and vomiting. Additionally, other plants in the Eupatorium genus contain the hepatotoxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs). However, the alkaloids in boneset have not been adequately characterized to determine their toxic potential. Liver toxicity and liver damage may be possible in high doses.”

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Leniolisib page

“Leniolisib (Joenja) treats APDS, a rare immune disorder, and it is cleared by the CYP3A4 enzyme, a pathway that runs through nearly this whole page: 121 of the 145 supplements and herbs on file can push its blood level up or down that way. That deserves genuine vigilance, starting with the three major entries.”

About Boneset

What is Boneset?

  • Colds and flu
  • Fever
  • Body aches
  • Congestion
  • Immune support

Boneset is a traditional North American herb long used in teas for fevers, colds, and flu, but modern human studies are very limited. It contains compounds (pyrrolizidine alkaloids) that may harm the liver, so it should be used cautiously and avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Eupatorium perfoliatum · Asteraceae · Dried above-ground parts (leaves and flowering tops) · Tea, tincture, capsules, dried herb

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

Boneset: dosing

There is no well-established, standardized dose for boneset. Traditional preparations were usually made as a hot tea from the dried herb, but reliable modern dosing guidelines are not available.If you choose to use a commercial product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them.

About Leniolisib

What Is Leniolisib Used For?

Brand name: Joenja

Joenja (leniolisib) is approved to treat activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta syndrome, commonly called APDS — a rare genetic immune disorder in which certain immune cells (B and T cells) don't work properly. It is approved for adults and pediatric patients who are at least 12 years old.

APDS is caused by gene variants that make a specific enzyme (PI3K-delta) overactive, leading to immune system dysfunction. Joenja is the brand name for leniolisib in tablet form, taken by mouth.

Do Boneset and Leniolisib have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to one of the same effects. That is not an interaction: neither changes how your body handles the other.

How was the Boneset and Leniolisib combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Leniolisib is filed under 3 classifications, and Boneset has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Leniolisib's classifications are among them.
