Calea Zacatechichi and Reslizumab

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 Reslizumab and Calea Zacatechichi 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.

Calea Zacatechichi safety at a glance

Calea Zacatechichi overall Use caution It has a long folk-use history but little modern safety data, and it can cause nausea and vomiting.

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

What to actually watch for

What Calea Zacatechichi Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Reslizumab. It is the side-effect record for Calea Zacatechichi on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Calea Zacatechichi, this list is the first place to look.

  • Drowsiness Additional detail

    “There is currently a limited amount of information on the adverse effects of Calea zacatechichi. Observations in healthy volunteers indicate that it is bitter tasting and may cause vomiting and somnolence.”

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Calea Zacatechichi — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We read the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Reslizumab’s FDA label too, and the two lists don’t meaningfully overlap — which is why no Reslizumab column appears here.

Overlapping uses

What Reslizumab Is Prescribed For, and What Calea Zacatechichi Has Been Studied For

These two come up together because they touch the same health topic — not because they do the same job. Reslizumab is a prescription medicine with approved uses on its FDA label. Calea Zacatechichi is a supplement: what follows is what researchers have looked at it for, and how strong that evidence is.

Reslizumab is prescribed for: Cinqair (reslizumab) injection is indicated for adults 18 years and older with severe asthma that is driven by high eosinophil levels (a type of white blood cell involved in allergic inflammation). It is used as an add-on treatment, meaning it works alongside other asthma medicines the patient is already taking. Cinqair is not meant to treat sudden asthma attacks or to relieve symptoms in the moment. It is also not approved for other conditions caused by high eosinophil levels, and it is not approved for anyone under 18.

Calea Zacatechichi has been studied for:

  • Asthma studied, not established Calea Zacatechichi has been studied for this. Natural Medicines rates the evidence: Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate Read what the research shows

    Calea Zacatechichi for asthma

    Although there is interest in using oral Calea zacatechichi for asthma, there is insufficient reliable information about the clinical effects of Calea zacatechichi for this condition.

Effectiveness ratings and the research summaries above are the verbatim record from the Natural Medicines database, which grades evidence from “Effective” down to “Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate”. A rating below the top of that scale means researchers have looked at it — not that it works, and never that it can stand in for a prescribed medicine. Do not stop or replace Reslizumab on your own; if you are taking Calea Zacatechichi for the same health topic, tell your prescriber, especially if the medicine is being adjusted to a target.

About Calea Zacatechichi

What is Calea Zacatechichi?

  • Promoting vivid or lucid dreams
  • Sleep and relaxation
  • Digestive upset
  • Fever
  • Traditional ritual use

Calea zacatechichi, often called 'dream herb,' is a Mexican plant traditionally used to encourage vivid dreams and to treat digestive complaints and fever. Human research is very limited, so its benefits are not well proven, and its safety has not been carefully studied. It tastes very bitter, can cause nausea, and should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Calea ternifolia · Asteraceae · Leaves and flowering tops (dried) · Dried leaf tea, capsules, tincture/liquid extract, and smoked dried leaf
