No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Guarumo and Gilteritinib Fumarate 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.

Guarumo and Gilteritinib Fumarate

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 Gilteritinib Fumarate and Guarumo 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 Gilteritinib Fumarate

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Gilteritinib Fumarate is filed under 3 classifications — p-glycoprotein substrates, cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) substrates, oral drugs. Guarumo has documented interactions with 3 drug classes — the most serious being antidiabetes drugs (moderate), antihypertensive drugs (moderate) and cns depressants (moderate) — and none of Gilteritinib Fumarate’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 to actually watch for

What Guarumo Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Gilteritinib Fumarate. It is the side-effect record for Guarumo on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Guarumo, this list is the first place to look.

  • Heartburn Additional detail

    “Orally, guarumo seems to be well tolerated when used as a tea. Rare side effects reported in a clinical trial include excessive salivation, heartburn, and exhaustion. Topically, no adverse effects have been reported. However, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.”

Everything above comes from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record for Guarumo — expand a row for the licensed statement it rests on. We read the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Gilteritinib Fumarate’s FDA label too, and the two lists don’t meaningfully overlap — which is why no Gilteritinib Fumarate column appears here.

“Anyone taking gilteritinib fumarate (Xospata) is treating FLT3-mutated acute myeloid leukemia, and that alone makes this list one to approach with real vigilance.

About Guarumo

What is Guarumo?

Guarumo
  • Type 2 diabetes / blood sugar support
  • High blood pressure
  • Cough, asthma, and bronchitis
  • Heart failure symptoms
  • Liver and rheumatic complaints

Guarumo (Cecropia obtusifolia) is a tropical tree used in Latin American traditional medicine, most often as a leaf tea for diabetes and high blood pressure. Some early laboratory and small human studies suggest it may modestly affect blood sugar, but the evidence is limited and not strong enough to recommend it as a treatment. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before using it, especially if you have a chronic condition or take medication.

Cecropia obtusifolia · Urticaceae · Leaves (most common), bark, and root · Tea (infusion or decoction), liquid extracts, capsules, and dried leaf

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

Guarumo: dosing

There is no established standard dose for guarumo. Traditional use most often involves a tea made from the dried leaves, but the amount of active compounds can vary a lot between products and even between batches.If you choose to use a guarumo product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them.

About Gilteritinib

What Is Gilteritinib Used For?

Brand name: Xospata

Xospata (gilteritinib) is used to treat adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) — a fast-moving blood and bone marrow cancer — when the disease has come back after prior treatment (relapsed) or stopped responding to treatment (refractory). It is only used when a laboratory test approved by the FDA has confirmed that the leukemia cells carry a FLT3 mutation, a genetic change that helps the cancer grow.

Because response can take time, treatment for at least 6 months is generally recommended as long as the disease is not progressing and side effects are manageable.
