The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Divi-divi and Mitomycin 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.

Divi-divi and Mitomycin

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 Mitomycin and Divi-divi 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 Divi-divi at all — not against Mitomycin, 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 Mitomycin’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Divi-divi. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Mitomycin’s own FDA label, for the medication by itself. Knowing the drug’s own list makes it easier to work out the likely cause if something new turns up while you take both. 10 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • A stroke or mini-stroke Worth acting on
  • Pain or burning when passing urine Worth acting on
  • High potassium Worth acting on
  • A low platelet count Worth acting on
  • Kidney problems Worth acting on
  • Anemia Worth acting on
  • Raised blood pressure Worth acting on
  • A low white blood cell count Worth acting on
  • Bleeding or bruising Worth acting on
  • A higher chance of infection Worth acting on

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Mitomycin. Read the label on DailyMed › Divi-divi’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Divi-divi side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Divi-divi has no side effects.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Mitomycin

This page covers Divi-divi only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Mitomycin page lists 26 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Acerola (moderate), Alpha-lipoic Acid (moderate), Coffee Charcoal (moderate) and Dimethylsulfoxide (dmso) (moderate).

By severity: 1 major · 15 moderate · 10 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Mitomycin page

“Activated charcoal is the entry to know first with mitomycin (Mutamycin, Mitosol, Jelmyto), a chemotherapy drug, because charcoal binds medications and can cut the amount the body receives, and it carries this list's only major rating. A weakened dose of a cancer treatment is a real loss, so I would treat these 26 interactions with gen…”

Where does our data come from?
  • Source: the Natural Medicines (TRC Healthcare) clinical database — the evidence-graded professional reference for herb & supplement interactions. Divi-divi is not yet covered by that licensed database, so its write-up cites publicly available medical sources directly (see the references below).
  • Citation library: 103,510 references behind our interaction content, 65,311 of them resolved to verified PubMed/DOI sources. See every Divi-divi reference on this page ↓
  • Freshness: we automatically re-check this combination every week — this pair was last verified September 20, 2026. The Divi-divi and Mitomycin records this page draws on were last updated June 22, 2026.
  • What “no known interaction” means: no documented interaction in the sources above — not a guarantee of safety. Supplements are studied far less than prescription drugs, so we say exactly what the evidence supports, and nothing more.

About Divi-divi

What is Divi-divi?

  • Source of tannins for tanning leather
  • Traditional astringent for skin
  • Mouth and throat irritation (traditional gargles)
  • Wound and sore care (folk use)
  • Mild digestive complaints (folk use)

Divi-divi is a tropical tree whose tannin-rich seed pods have long been used in leather tanning and in traditional folk remedies, mostly as an astringent. There is very little modern human research to support any health benefit, so it should not be relied on to treat any medical condition. If you are considering it, talk with a pharmacist or doctor first.

Caesalpinia coriaria · Fabaceae · Seed pods (and sometimes bark) · Powdered pod extract, decoctions, and traditional topical preparations

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

Divi-divi: dosing

There is no established or standardized medicinal dose for divi-divi. Traditional preparations vary widely and are not measured in a consistent way.If you choose to use a product that contains divi-divi, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed the suggested amount.

About Mitomycin

What Is Mitomycin Used For?

Brand names: Mutamycin, Mitosol, Jelmyto

Mitomycin (and its brand Mutamycin) is used intravenously in combination with other chemotherapy drugs to treat disseminated adenocarcinoma (a type of cancer that has spread) of the stomach or pancreas, when other treatments have not worked. It is not intended to replace surgery or radiation therapy.

Mitomycin is also the active ingredient in other products for different uses: Jelmyto treats low-grade upper tract urothelial cancer (cancer of the upper urinary tract); Zusduri treats recurrent low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer; and Mitosol is used as a surgical aid during certain glaucoma eye surgery. These are separate products with distinct indications and are not interchangeable with the intravenous injection form.
