Devil's Club + Apixaban
Apixaban brand name: Eliquis.
We found no known interaction between Devil's Club and Apixaban 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.
Devil's Club and Apixaban
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 Apixaban and Devil's Club 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 Devil's Club at all — not against Apixaban, 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.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Apixaban
This page covers Devil's Club only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Apixaban page lists 285 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.
The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Danshen (major), Grapefruit (major), Piracetam (major) and St. John's Wort (major).
By severity: 5 major · 240 moderate · 40 minor.
From our pharmacist’s overview on the Apixaban page
“St. John's wort can weaken apixaban (Eliquis), speeding how the body clears this blood thinner and leaving you less protected from the strokes and clots it is prescribed to prevent.”

About Devil's Club
What is Devil's Club?
- Blood sugar support
- Respiratory and cold symptoms
- Arthritis and joint pain
- Digestive complaints
- General tonic and wellness
Devil's Club is a thorny shrub from the Pacific Northwest of North America that has long been used in Indigenous traditional medicine, especially for blood sugar and respiratory complaints. Scientific evidence in humans is very limited, so its benefits are not proven. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using it, and avoid it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Oplopanax horridus · Araliaceae · Root bark, stem bark, and inner bark · Tea or decoction, tincture, capsules, dried bark, topical salves
An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Devil's Club is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Devil's Club record says about it on its own.

About Apixaban
What Is Apixaban Used For?
Brand name: Eliquis
Apixaban is used to reduce the risk of stroke and dangerous clots traveling through the body in adults with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm not caused by a heart valve problem). It is also used to prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT — a blood clot in the leg) in adults after hip or knee replacement surgery, and to treat DVT and pulmonary embolism (PE — a blood clot in the lungs) in adults, including reducing the risk of those clots coming back.
Eliquis (the brand-name tablet and kit) is additionally approved to treat venous thromboembolism (VTE — blood clots in the veins) and reduce the risk of recurrent VTE in pediatric patients from birth and older, after at least 5 days of initial anticoagulant treatment. The generic apixaban tablet carries the adult indications only.
