Greek Sage and Entrectinib

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 Entrectinib and Greek Sage 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.

Greek Sage safety at a glance

Greek Sage overall Use caution Likely safe in food and tea amounts, but concentrated extracts and the essential oil need more caution.
Pregnancy Avoid Avoid medicinal or concentrated amounts during pregnancy due to limited safety data.
Breastfeeding Use caution Limited data; avoid concentrated forms and check with your doctor.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Entrectinib

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Entrectinib is filed under 4 classifications — including qt interval-prolonging drugs, hepatotoxic drugs, cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) substrates. Greek Sage has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being hexobarbital (moderate) — and none of Entrectinib’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 Entrectinib’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Greek Sage. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Entrectinib’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. 10 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Loss of vision Worth acting on
  • Bone thinning Worth acting on
  • Muscle weakness Worth acting on
  • Memory problems Worth acting on
  • Dehydration Worth acting on
  • Trouble swallowing Worth acting on
  • High potassium Worth acting on
  • Unsteadiness Worth acting on
  • Blood clots Worth acting on
  • Hallucinations Worth acting on

Showing the 10 most notable of 53 label-listed effects — ranked by how unusual each one is across medicines generally, with serious effects weighted up.

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Entrectinib. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 1,653 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Entrectinib that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Greek Sage’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Greek Sage side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Greek Sage has no side effects.

About Greek Sage

What is Greek Sage?

  • Sore throat and mouth irritation
  • Digestive upset
  • Memory and cognition support
  • Antimicrobial purposes
  • Flavoring and aromatherapy

Greek sage (Salvia fruticosa) is a Mediterranean herb traditionally used as a tea and flavoring, and popularly for sore throats and digestion. Solid human research on its health benefits is limited, so most uses are based on tradition or early lab studies. It is generally considered safe in food amounts, but talk to a pharmacist or doctor before using concentrated extracts or essential oils.

Salvia fruticosa · Lamiaceae · Leaves and essential oil · Tea, dried leaf, capsules, essential oil, extracts

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

Greek Sage: dosing

There is no official standardized dose of Greek sage. Traditional use is usually a cup of tea made from a small amount of dried leaf.For capsules, extracts, or essential oil products, follow the directions on the label, since the strength varies a lot between products.
