Ribociclib Succinate brand name: Kisqali.

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 Cade and Ribociclib Succinate 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.

Interaction report

Cade and Ribociclib Succinate

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 Ribociclib Succinate and Cade 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 Cade at all — not against Ribociclib Succinate, 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 to actually watch for

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Cade and Ribociclib Succinate May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

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. 5 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • A low white blood cell count / A low platelet count / Anemia Worth acting on reported in 12.7% of FDA reports for Ribociclib Succinate Additional detail

Showing the 10 most notable of 13 shared effects — ranked by how unusual each one is, not just whether both lists mention it.

Reported for Cade but not commonly for Ribociclib Succinate: an electrolyte imbalance, kidney problems, seizures and a fast or pounding heartbeat.

Effects for Ribociclib Succinate come from the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of its FDA label; effects for Cade come from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, quoted above. Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 30,529 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Ribociclib Succinate that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Wording is matched across sources by our own clinical vocabulary, so treat this as a prompt to pay attention, not a diagnosis.

About Cade

What is Cade?

  • Psoriasis and eczema
  • Itchy or scaly scalp (dandruff)
  • Minor skin irritation
  • Antiseptic for the skin
  • Hair and scalp care

Cade oil (juniper tar) is a dark, tar-like oil distilled from the wood of the prickly juniper and is used almost entirely on the skin and scalp for conditions like psoriasis, eczema, and dandruff. Good-quality human research is limited, and there are real safety concerns, so it should only be used on the skin, carefully and in small amounts. Talk with a pharmacist or doctor before using it, and never take it by mouth.

Juniperus oxycedrus · Cupressaceae · Wood and branches, used to make cade oil (juniper tar) · Cade oil (juniper tar), topical creams, ointments, shampoos, and soaps

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

Cade: dosing

There is no established standard dose for cade oil. It is most often found already mixed into shampoos, soaps, creams, or ointments at low concentrations rather than used as a pure oil.The best approach is to follow the directions on the product label and not apply more or more often than recommended.

About Ribociclib

What Is Ribociclib Used For?

Brand name: Kisqali

Kisqali (ribociclib) tablets are used in adults with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer. For early breast cancer (stage II or III, at high risk of coming back), Kisqali is given alongside an aromatase inhibitor as adjuvant treatment — meaning treatment after initial surgery to reduce the risk of the cancer returning.

For advanced or metastatic breast cancer (cancer that has spread), Kisqali is used in combination with either an aromatase inhibitor or fulvestrant — as the first hormonal treatment tried, or after the cancer has grown despite prior hormone therapy.

Taking Cade and Ribociclib Succinate Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Cade with Ribociclib Succinate?

Do Cade and Ribociclib Succinate have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to 10 of the same effects. That is not an interaction: neither changes how your body handles the other.
