Butea Superba and Valbenazine Tosylate

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 Valbenazine Tosylate and Butea Superba 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 Valbenazine Tosylate

Butea Superba has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (moderate) — and none of Valbenazine Tosylate’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 Valbenazine Tosylate’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Butea Superba. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Valbenazine Tosylate’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. 9 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Thoughts of self-harm Worth acting on
  • Trouble passing urine Worth acting on
  • Unsteadiness Worth acting on
  • High blood sugar Worth acting on
  • An irregular heartbeat Worth acting on

Showing the 10 most notable of 26 label-listed effects — ranked by how unusual each one is across medicines generally, with serious effects weighted up.

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Valbenazine Tosylate. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 24,614 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Valbenazine Tosylate that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Butea Superba’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Butea Superba side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Butea Superba has no side effects.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Valbenazine Tosylate page

“The list for valbenazine (Ingrezza), the medicine for tardive dyskinesia, warrants genuine care, since 14 of its 216 supplement and herbal interactions are rated major. Most of those majors either pile extra sedation onto a drug that can already make people drowsy, alcohol being the everyday example, or shift how much valbenazine reach…”

About Butea Superba

What is Butea Superba?

Butea Superba
  • Erectile dysfunction
  • Low libido
  • Male sexual performance
  • General vitality and energy
  • Traditional tonic

Butea superba is a Thai herb traditionally used to support male sexual health, but the human evidence is very limited and mostly small or low-quality.

About Valbenazine

What Is Valbenazine Used For?

Brand name: Ingrezza

Valbenazine — sold as Ingrezza and INGREZZA Sprinkle — is approved for two conditions in adults. The first is tardive dyskinesia, a movement disorder that causes uncontrolled, repetitive facial or body movements, often brought on by long-term use of certain psychiatric medications. The second is chorea associated with Huntington's disease, which refers to the involuntary, dance-like jerking movements that are a hallmark of that condition.

Both Ingrezza and INGREZZA Sprinkle are approved for both of these uses.
