Interaction report

Clematis Recta and Docusate Sodium, Phenolphthalein

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 Docusate Sodium, Phenolphthalein and Clematis Recta 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 Clematis Recta at all — not against Docusate Sodium, Phenolphthalein, 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 Clematis Recta Itself Has Been Linked To

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

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Clematis Recta — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We haven’t matched Docusate Sodium, Phenolphthalein to its FDA label in our system yet, so we can’t compare its own side-effect list here — the leaflet that comes with your prescription is the authoritative list for Docusate Sodium, Phenolphthalein.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Docusate Sodium, Phenolphthalein page

“Correctol and Modane Plus pair docusate, a stool softener, with phenolphthalein, a stimulant laxative, and the pairings below deserve real caution. Of the 46 supplements and herbs on this list, 29 are plant laxatives that work the same way phenolphthalein does, so doubling up can drain fluid and potassium fast.”

About Clematis Recta

What is Clematis Recta?

  • Skin complaints and eruptions
  • Swollen or tender lymph glands
  • Urinary discomfort
  • Nerve pain
  • Men's groin and testicular discomfort (traditional homeopathic use)

Clematis recta is a flowering plant in the buttercup family that is mostly sold today as a homeopathic remedy. The fresh plant is toxic and irritating, and there is no reliable human evidence that it treats any condition, so it should be used cautiously and only under professional guidance.

Clematis recta · Ranunculaceae · Fresh leaves and stems (aerial parts), usually gathered before flowering · Homeopathic pellets, dilutions, and mother tinctures; rarely as topical preparations

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

Clematis Recta: dosing

There is no established standard dose for Clematis recta. The raw plant is not recommended at all because it is toxic and irritating.When sold as a homeopathic remedy, it comes in standardized dilutions and potencies set by the manufacturer.
