Goa Powder + Raloxifene
Raloxifene brand name: Evista.
We found no known interaction between Goa Powder and Raloxifene 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. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.
Goa Powder and Raloxifene
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 Raloxifene and Goa Powder 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 Goa Powder at all — not against Raloxifene, 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.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Raloxifene page
“Raloxifene (Evista) works quietly, protecting bone and lowering breast cancer risk over years, so anything that weakens the dose causes damage you may not feel until much later, and I read this list with real wariness. Nearly every entry is a fiber, gum, or mucilage that can blunt how much raloxifene your body absorbs.”

About Goa Powder
What is Goa Powder?
- Psoriasis (topical)
- Ringworm and other fungal skin infections
- Scaly skin conditions
- Eczema-like rashes
Goa powder (also called araroba) is a natural source of chrysarobin, a substance historically used on the skin for psoriasis and fungal infections. It is a harsh, irritating chemical that is mostly of historical interest today, and it should never be swallowed. If you are considering anything containing chrysarobin or anthralin, talk with a doctor or pharmacist first.
Andira araroba · Fabaceae · A yellow powder (chrysarobin) extracted from the wood and trunk cavities of the araroba tree · Topical ointments, pastes, and creams; historically a raw powder
An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Goa Powder is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Goa Powder record says about it on its own.
Goa Powder: dosing
There is no established or standardized dose for Goa powder as a supplement. Historically it was mixed into ointments at concentrations chosen by a pharmacist or physician, and even then it had to be used carefully because of irritation and staining.If you encounter a product that contains chrysarobin or the related medicine anthralin, follow the product label exactly and do not apply more than directed. Because this is a potent and irritating substance, it is best to use it only under the guidance of a doctor or pharmacist.

About Raloxifene
What Is Raloxifene Used For?
Brand name: Evista
Raloxifene tablets are approved for postmenopausal women for two main purposes: treating and preventing osteoporosis (thinning of the bones), and reducing the risk of invasive breast cancer. The breast cancer risk-reduction use applies to postmenopausal women who already have osteoporosis or who are otherwise considered at high risk for invasive breast cancer.
Important limits apply: raloxifene is not used to treat existing breast cancer, prevent breast cancer from coming back, or prevent noninvasive breast cancer. It does not eliminate breast cancer risk entirely. Women taking it for breast cancer risk reduction should continue regular breast exams and mammograms.
