The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Clubmoss and Goserelin 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.

Clubmoss and Goserelin

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 Goserelin and Clubmoss 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 Goserelin

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Goserelin is filed under a single classification — oral drugs. Clubmoss has documented interactions with 3 drug classes — the most serious being acetylcholinesterase (ache) inhibitors (moderate), anticholinergic drugs (moderate) and cholinergic drugs (moderate) — and none of Goserelin’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 to actually watch for

What Clubmoss Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Goserelin. It is the side-effect record for Clubmoss on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Clubmoss, this list is the first place to look. One entry is worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Wheezing Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Orally, no adverse effects have been reported; however, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted. Additionally, clubmoss contains toxic alkaloids, which could cause serious adverse effects. When fir club moss (Lycopodium selago) is mistaken for clubmoss, cholinergic toxicity has been reported.”

  • Sweating / Dizziness / Nausea Additional detail

    “Clubmoss (Lycopodium clavatum) might be mistaken for fir club moss (Lycopodium selago), which contains huperzine A, a constituent with strong inhibitory activity against acetylcholinesterase. In two case reports, fir club moss was mistaken for clubmoss and ingested as tea. This caused cholinergic toxicity with symptoms of sweating, nausea, dizziness, cramping, and slurred speech.”

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Clubmoss — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We haven’t matched Goserelin 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 Goserelin.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Goserelin page

“Goserelin (Zoladex) is given as a small implant under the skin, usually for prostate cancer, certain breast cancers, or endometriosis, and I would want anyone on it to read this list with real attention. All 17 flagged ingredients raise the same basic concern, changing how drugs are absorbed or retained, and the single major-rated one…”

About Clubmoss

What is Clubmoss?

Clubmoss
  • Bladder and kidney complaints
  • Digestive upset
  • Skin irritation and chafing
  • Respiratory problems
  • Used in homeopathy

Clubmoss (Lycopodium clavatum) is a primitive plant with a long history in folk medicine and homeopathy, but there is very little reliable human research to show it works for any health condition. It contains potentially toxic alkaloids, so it should be used with great caution, and people who are pregnant or breastfeeding should avoid it. Talk with a pharmacist or doctor before trying it.

Lycopodium clavatum · Lycopodiaceae · Whole plant and spores · Powdered spores, dried herb, tinctures, teas, homeopathic preparations, capsules

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

Clubmoss: dosing

There is no established, well-studied dose for clubmoss. Because the amount of active and potentially toxic compounds can vary between products and plant sources, a safe dose has not been clearly defined.If you choose to use a clubmoss product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them. Homeopathic "Lycopodium" products are extremely diluted and are different from raw herb preparations.

About Goserelin Implant

What Is Goserelin Implant Used For?

Brand name: Zoladex

  • Goserelin implant is used in combination with radiation therapy and other medications to treat localized prostate cancer and is used alone to treat the symptoms associated with advanced prostate cancer. It is also used to treat advanced breast cancer in certain women. It is also used to manage endometriosis (a condition in which the type of tissue that lines the uterus [womb] grows in other areas of the body and causes pain, heavy or irregular menstruation [periods], and other symptoms) and to help with the treatment of abnormal bleeding of the uterus. Goserelin implant is in a class of medications called gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists. It works by decreasing the amount of certain hormones in the body.

Most-Reported Side Effects for Goserelin
