The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Fadogia Agrestis and Citalopram 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.

Fadogia Agrestis and Citalopram

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 Citalopram and Fadogia Agrestis 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 Fadogia Agrestis at all — not against Citalopram, 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.

Fadogia Agrestis overall Use caution Human safety data are lacking and animal studies suggest possible toxicity to the testicles, liver, and kidneys.

What Citalopram’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Fadogia Agrestis. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Citalopram’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. 8 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Mania or an unusually elevated mood Worth acting on
  • Serotonin syndrome Worth acting on
  • Thoughts of self-harm Worth acting on
  • Low sodium Worth acting on
  • An irregular heartbeat Worth acting on
  • Seizures Worth acting on
  • Bleeding or bruising Worth acting on
  • An allergic reaction Worth acting on
  • Erection problems
  • Tiredness mentioned in 6.6% of FDA reports for Citalopram

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Citalopram. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 106,559 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Citalopram that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Fadogia Agrestis’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Fadogia Agrestis side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Fadogia Agrestis has no side effects.

Where does our data come from?
  • Source: the Natural Medicines (TRC Healthcare) clinical database — the evidence-graded professional reference for herb & supplement interactions. Fadogia Agrestis 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 Fadogia Agrestis reference on this page ↓
  • Freshness: we automatically re-check this combination every week — this pair was last verified September 13, 2026. The Fadogia Agrestis and Citalopram 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 Fadogia Agrestis

What is Fadogia Agrestis?

  • Boosting testosterone
  • Improving libido and sexual function
  • Athletic performance and muscle building
  • Traditional African remedy for various ailments

Fadogia agrestis is a West African shrub marketed as a testosterone booster, but human evidence is essentially nonexistent and what we know comes mostly from a few small rat studies. Animal data raise real concerns about organ toxicity, so the safety of long-term use in people is unknown. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before trying it, and avoid it if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any underlying health conditions.

Fadogia agrestis · Rubiaceae · Stem (and sometimes leaves and roots) · Capsules, powders, and tinctures (often sold as a standardized extract)

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

There is no established or proven safe dose of Fadogia agrestis for humans. The doses used in supplements are based on animal studies and manufacturer choices, not on human research.If you choose to use a product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them.
