Interaction report

Corkwood Tree and Sugammadex Sodium

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 Sugammadex Sodium and Corkwood Tree 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.

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

About Corkwood Tree

What is Corkwood Tree?

  • Source of scopolamine and hyoscyamine alkaloids
  • Traditional use as a stimulant or for fatigue
  • Historic use for motion sickness (via its alkaloids)
  • Antispasmodic / smooth muscle effects

Corkwood Tree (Duboisia myoporoides) is an Australian plant best known as a commercial source of powerful tropane alkaloids like scopolamine and hyoscyamine, not as a safe home remedy. The raw plant is highly toxic and should not be used as a dietary supplement; only purified, medically prescribed alkaloids derived from it should be used, and only under a doctor's care.

Duboisia myoporoides · Solanaceae · Leaves · Not commonly sold as a consumer supplement; historically a source of plant extracts and isolated alkaloids

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

Corkwood Tree: dosing

There is no safe established dose of Corkwood Tree leaf for self-use, and it should not be taken as a supplement. The only appropriate use of compounds from this plant is in standardized, prescription medicines (such as scopolamine or hyoscyamine) that are dosed and monitored by healthcare professionals.If you have been given a medicine derived from this plant, follow the product label and your prescriber's directions exactly. Do not attempt to make or use any homemade preparation.
