Goat's Rue and Meprobamate, Tridihexethyl

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 Meprobamate, Tridihexethyl and Goat's Rue 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.

Goat's Rue safety at a glance

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Meprobamate, Tridihexethyl page

“Anyone taking Pathibamate, which combines meprobamate, a sedative, with tridihexethyl, an anticholinergic that dries secretions and slows the gut, should read this page carefully rather than skim it.

About Goat's Rue

What is Goat's Rue?

Goat's Rue
  • Boosting breast milk supply
  • Blood sugar support
  • Traditional digestive remedy
  • General tonic

Goat's rue is a traditional herb most often used by nursing parents to try to increase milk supply, and it has a historical link to diabetes research. Solid human evidence for either use is limited, and the plant can be toxic in larger amounts, so use it only under the guidance of a pharmacist or doctor.

Galega officinalis · Fabaceae · Above-ground parts (leaves, flowering tops, and seeds) · Tea, capsules, tincture, dried herb
