The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Golden Ragwort and Amphetamine 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.

Golden Ragwort and Amphetamine

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 Amphetamine and Golden Ragwort 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.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Amphetamine

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Amphetamine is filed under 6 classifications — including monoamine oxidase inhibitors (maois), amphetamines, stimulant drugs. Golden Ragwort has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) inducers (moderate) — and none of Amphetamine’s classifications are among them.

Classification data comes from our licensed Natural Medicines dataset. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded there, so this describes how the check was run — it is not a safety guarantee.

What Golden Ragwort Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Amphetamine. It is the side-effect record for Golden Ragwort on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Golden Ragwort, this list is the first place to look. 2 entries are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

Special populations

Golden Ragwort in Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy Likely Unsafe

When used orally. Golden ragwort preparations containing hepatotoxic pyrrolizidine alkaloid (PA) constituents might be teratogenic and hepatotoxic. There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of using golden ragwort products that do not contain hepatotoxic PAs during pregnancy.

Lactation Likely Unsafe

When used orally. Hepatotoxic pyrrolizidine alkaloid (PA) constituents in golden ragwort are excreted in breast-milk. There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of using golden ragwort products that are PA-free during lactation; avoid using.

About Golden Ragwort

What is Golden Ragwort?

  • Menstrual complaints
  • Easing childbirth (traditional)
  • Urinary discomfort
  • Sore throat (folk use)

Golden Ragwort is a flowering plant once used in traditional and folk medicine, mainly for menstrual and female reproductive complaints. It contains pyrrolizidine alkaloids that can cause serious liver damage, so it is not considered safe for internal use, and modern herbalists generally avoid it.

Packera aurea · Asteraceae · Aerial parts (leaves, stems, flowers) and roots · Tea, tincture, dried herb

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

Golden Ragwort: dosing

There is no established safe dose for Golden Ragwort, and no standardized products are recommended. Because it contains liver-toxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids, health authorities generally advise against taking it at all.If you come across a product that contains this plant, do not assume any amount is safe.
