Burr Marigold and Dacarbazine

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 Dacarbazine and Burr Marigold 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 Burr Marigold at all — not against Dacarbazine, 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 Dacarbazine’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Burr Marigold. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Dacarbazine’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.

  • Fever mentioned in 13.9% of FDA reports for Dacarbazine
  • Sun sensitivity
  • Flushing
  • Hair loss
  • Numbness or tingling mentioned in 4.0% of FDA reports for Dacarbazine
  • Reduced appetite
  • Tiredness
  • Diarrhea
  • Vomiting
  • Nausea mentioned in 3.8% of FDA reports for Dacarbazine

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Dacarbazine. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 7,411 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Dacarbazine that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Burr Marigold’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Burr Marigold side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Burr Marigold has no side effects.

Everything else you take

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Dacarbazine

This page covers Burr Marigold only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Dacarbazine page lists 24 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Acerola (moderate), Alpha-lipoic Acid (moderate), Coenzyme Q10 (moderate) and Coffee Charcoal (moderate).

By severity: 1 major · 14 moderate · 9 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Dacarbazine page

“Activated charcoal carries the only major rating against dacarbazine (DTIC-Dome), and it matters even though this chemotherapy is usually given by IV. Charcoal can trap drugs that recirculate through the gut and lower the amount in your body, and for a medicine fighting melanoma or Hodgkin lymphoma, a weakened dose is a real problem.”

About Burr Marigold

What is Burr Marigold?

Burr Marigold
  • Minor wounds and skin irritation
  • Mild urinary complaints
  • Digestive upset
  • Coughs and colds
  • General 'cleansing' or diuretic effect

Burr Marigold (Bidens tripartita) is a wetland plant used in traditional medicine for wounds, urinary complaints, and digestive issues, but high-quality human research is lacking. Because its effectiveness and safety have not been well studied, it should be used cautiously, and avoided in pregnancy, breastfeeding, and in young children. Talk to a pharmacist or doctor before trying it.

Bidens tripartita · Asteraceae · Above-ground parts (herb), including leaves, stems, and flowering tops · Tea (dried herb infusion), tincture, liquid extract, dried herb

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

Burr Marigold: dosing

There is no established standard dose for Burr Marigold. Traditional use has involved teas made from the dried herb, as well as tinctures and liquid extracts, but reliable dosing guidelines from clinical research do not exist.If you choose to use a commercial product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed the recommended amount.
