Evodia and Sirolimus (albumin bound)

Here is the interaction we found between these two, with the evidence behind it.

Moderate

CYTOCHROME P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) SUBSTRATES

Why this applies to Sirolimus (albumin bound)

Sirolimus (albumin bound) falls under CYTOCHROME P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) SUBSTRATES — the group Evodia interacts with.

Theoretically, evodia might increase the levels and clinical effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research shows that evodia extract inhibits hepatic CYP3A4. This effect has not been reported in humans.
Severity Moderate Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Interaction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists.

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's the concern with combining Evodia and your sirolimus (Fyarro) infusions. Your body relies on a liver enzyme called CYP3A4 to clear sirolimus out of your system. In lab studies, Evodia appears to slow that enzyme down. If that happened in a person, sirolimus could build up higher than intended, which may mean more side effects like mouth sores, low blood counts, swelling, high blood sugar or cholesterol, or lung irritation.

I want to be honest about the evidence here: this has only been seen in test tubes, not in real patients, so it's more of a theoretical worry than a proven one. Still, sirolimus is a powerful cancer medicine where blood levels matter, so please run any Evodia use past your oncology team or pharmacist first.
