Eurycoma Longifolia and Amphetamine

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 Amphetamine and Eurycoma Longifolia 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.

Eurycoma Longifolia safety at a glance

Eurycoma Longifoli... overall Use caution Generally tolerated short-term in studies, but long-term safety and product quality are uncertain.
Pregnancy Avoid Not enough safety data and possible hormonal effects, so avoid during pregnancy.
Breastfeeding Avoid No reliable safety information, so it is best to avoid while breastfeeding.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

Pharmacist analysis

Although there is no known interaction in this case, Eurycoma longifolia, most commonly known as Tongkat Ali, does have some potential interactions that are important to be aware of.

For example, it may interact with the following:

  • CYTOCHROME P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) SUBSTRATES
  • CYTOCHROME P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) SUBSTRATES
  • CYTOCHROME P450 2A6 (CYP2A6) SUBSTRATES
  • Propranolol
  • Testosterone

Tongkat Ali has been reported to inhibit certain metabolizing enzymes in the liver (the ones mentioned above) and therefore, may increase the levels of substances metabolized by those enzymes. This could potentially affect the way these substances work or how long they stay in your system.

In regard to propranolol, some studies show that Tongkat Ali decreases how well propranolol is absorbed in the gut and could reduce its effects. It is not known if separating administration will prevent this interaction/

Lastly, testosterone, Tongkat Ali may theoretically further increase levels of testosterone, a hormone responsible for various functions in the body. You should be cautious combining the two.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Amphetamine

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Amphetamine is filed under 6 classifications — including monoamine oxidase inhibitors (maois), amphetamines, stimulant drugs. Eurycoma Longifolia has documented interactions with 5 drug classes — the most serious being propranolol (inderal) (moderate), cytochrome p450 1a2 (cyp1a2) substrates (minor) and cytochrome p450 2a6 (cyp2a6) substrates (minor) — and none of Amphetamine’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 Eurycoma Longifolia Itself Has Been Linked To

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

  • Liver problems Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Some research in both humans and animals suggests that Eurycoma longifolia might increase testosterone levels. If testosterone levels are increased beyond the normal range, there is risk of testosterone-related side effects which could include acne, insulin resistance, hepatotoxicity, and others.”

Overlapping uses

What Amphetamine Is Prescribed For, and What Eurycoma Longifolia Has Been Studied For

These two come up together because they touch the same health topic — not because they do the same job. Amphetamine is a prescription medicine with approved uses on its FDA label. Eurycoma Longifolia is a supplement: what follows is what researchers have looked at it for, and how strong that evidence is.

Amphetamine is prescribed for: Amphetamine treats Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in patients 6 years and older. Adzenys XR-ODT, Dyanavel XR, and the amphetamine extended-release orally disintegrating tablet formulations are specifically approved for ADHD in this age group. Amphetamine Sulfate tablets and Evekeo (amphetamine sulfate tablets) are also approved for narcolepsy (a sleep disorder causing uncontrollable daytime sleepiness) and as a short-term aid in a calorie-restricted weight-loss program for exogenous obesity (weight gain from external factors like overeating) in patients who have not responded to other approaches.

Eurycoma Longifolia has been studied for:

  • Obesity studied, not established Eurycoma Longifolia has been studied for this. Natural Medicines rates the evidence: Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate Read what the research shows

    Eurycoma Longifolia for obesity

    Oral Eurycoma longifolia has only been evaluated in combination with other ingredients; its effect when used alone is unclear.

Effectiveness ratings and the research summaries above are the verbatim record from the Natural Medicines database, which grades evidence from “Effective” down to “Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate”. A rating below the top of that scale means researchers have looked at it — not that it works, and never that it can stand in for a prescribed medicine. Do not stop or replace Amphetamine on your own; if you are taking Eurycoma Longifolia for the same health topic, tell your prescriber, especially if the medicine is being adjusted to a target.

About Eurycoma Longifolia

What is Eurycoma Longifolia?

Eurycoma Longifolia
  • Low testosterone or low libido in men
  • Male fertility support
  • Athletic performance and muscle strength
  • Energy and fatigue
  • Stress and mood
  • General male enhancement

Eurycoma longifolia (tongkat ali) is a Southeast Asian herb most popular for supporting testosterone, libido, and male fertility, with some small human studies suggesting possible benefits. However, the overall evidence is still limited and product quality varies widely, so talk with your pharmacist or doctor before using it, and avoid it if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

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

Eurycoma Longifolia: dosing

There is no official or universally agreed-upon dose for Eurycoma longifolia. Studies have used different standardized extracts at different strengths, which makes it hard to recommend one specific amount.The best approach is to follow the directions on the product label and not exceed them.

Taking Eurycoma Longifolia and Amphetamine Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Eurycoma Longifolia with Amphetamine?
We do not list a known interaction between Eurycoma Longifolia and Amphetamine. That does not guarantee the combination is risk-free, so confirm with your pharmacist or doctor — especially if you take other medications or have a health condition.
Are Eurycoma Longifolia and Amphetamine used for the same thing?
They overlap in purpose, which usually means the real question is whether you need both rather than whether they are safe together. This page lists the shared uses and how strong the evidence is for Eurycoma Longifolia in each. That is a conversation for your prescriber, especially if Amphetamine is being adjusted to a target.
How was the Eurycoma Longifolia and Amphetamine combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Amphetamine is filed under 6 classifications, and Eurycoma Longifolia has documented interactions with 5 drug classes — none of Amphetamine's classifications are among them. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded in our dataset, so this describes how the check was run rather than guaranteeing safety.
Does Eurycoma Longifolia interact with any other medications?
Yes. Eurycoma Longifolia has 248 documented drug interactions in our database — Amphetamine is simply not one of them. If you take anything else, it is worth checking each one; they are all listed on this page.
Does Amphetamine interact with any supplements?
Yes. Amphetamine has documented interactions with 130 supplements in our database — Eurycoma Longifolia is not one of them. The Amphetamine interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
