The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Dyer's Broom and Propranolol 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.

Dyer's Broom and Propranolol

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 Propranolol and Dyer's Broom 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 Propranolol

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Propranolol is filed under 9 classifications — including beta-blockers, cytochrome p450 2c19 (cyp2c19) substrates, antihypertensive drugs. Dyer's Broom has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being caffeine (moderate) — and none of Propranolol’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 Dyer's Broom Itself Has Been Linked To

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

  • Diarrhea / Vomiting / Nausea Additional detail

    “Orally, dyer's broom may cause nausea and vomiting (12). Overuse of dyer's broom can lead to diarrhea (12,18).”

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Dyer's Broom — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We haven’t matched Propranolol 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 Propranolol.

About Dyer's Broom

What is Dyer's Broom?

Dyer's Broom
  • Skin irritation
  • Respiratory complaints
  • Gout
  • Lower back and pelvic pain
  • Digestive upset
  • As a natural yellow dye

Dyer's broom is a European flowering plant best known historically as a source of yellow textile dye, with some traditional medicinal uses. There is very little reliable human research to support any health benefit, and it contains compounds that can be toxic in larger amounts, so it should be used cautiously, if at all. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before trying it.

Genista tinctoria · Fabaceae · Flowering tops, stems, and sometimes roots · Tea, dried herb, tincture, topical preparations

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

Dyer's Broom: dosing

There is no established standard dose for dyer's broom, and no reliable human research to guide safe amounts. The concentration of active compounds can vary widely between products and plant batches.If you choose to use a commercial product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them.

About Propranolol (Cardiovascular)

What Is Propranolol (Cardiovascular) Used For?

Brand names: Inderal LA, Inderal, Angilol, Syprol, Inderal Injection, Half-Inderal LA, Bedranol SR, Half Beta Prograne, Beta Prograne, Lopranol LA, Slo-Pro, InnoPran XL

This intravenous (IV) form of propranolol is used in hospital or clinical settings to treat dangerous heart rhythm problems. It is generally reserved for life-threatening arrhythmias (abnormal heart rhythms) or those that occur during anesthesia.

Specific conditions it treats include fast heart rates coming from the upper chambers of the heart (supraventricular tachycardia), certain arrhythmias caused by digitalis toxicity, dangerous ventricular rhythms that haven't responded to other treatments, and fast heart rates caused by excess adrenaline-like substances during surgery.
