Evodia and Treprostinil (Inh)

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

Moderate

ANTICOAGULANT/ANTIPLATELET DRUGS

Why this applies to Treprostinil (Inh)

Treprostinil (Inh) falls under ANTICOAGULANT/ANTIPLATELET DRUGS — the group Evodia interacts with.

Theoretically, taking evodia with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs might increase the risk of bruising and bleeding.
In vitro and animal studies show that rutaecarpine, a constituent of evodia, inhibits platelet aggregation.
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 explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's the thing to know about inhaled treprostinil (Tyvaso): besides opening up the blood vessels in your lungs, it also makes your platelets a bit less sticky, so it gently reduces clotting on its own. Evodia may do something similar. Lab and animal studies suggest one of its compounds, rutaecarpine, can slow platelet clumping too.

Stacked together, the concern is a little extra bleeding or bruising, think easy bruises, nosebleeds, or bleeding gums. I want to be honest though: this is theoretical, based only on test tube and animal work, not on people. So don't panic. Just let your pharmacist or doctor know before adding an evodia supplement, and watch for unusual bruising or bleeding.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Treprostinil (Inh) page

“Inhaled treprostinil (Tyvaso) relaxes blood vessels in the lungs to treat pulmonary hypertension, and it also blunts platelet clotting, which is why this list of 275 ingredients warrants real vigilance rather than a shrug. Two themes cover almost everything.”

About Treprostinil Oral Inhalation

What Is Treprostinil Oral Inhalation Used For?

Brand name: Tyvaso

Treprostinil oral inhalation is used to treat two serious lung conditions that raise pressure in the blood vessels of the lungs. It helps improve how much physical activity you can do.

Tyvaso inhalation solution and Tyvaso DPI are both indicated to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH; WHO Group 1) and pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD; WHO Group 3). Clinical studies establishing effectiveness in PAH primarily included patients with moderate symptoms (NYHA Class III) whose PAH was idiopathic, heritable, or related to connective tissue disease. Studies in PH-ILD primarily included patients with idiopathic interstitial pneumonia, combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema, or connective tissue disease-related lung disease.
