Haronga and Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride

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 Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride and Haronga 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 Haronga at all — not against Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, 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.

How to take them

Some Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride Products Have a Food Rule — Haronga Should Not Break It

At least one FDA label for a product containing Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride says to take it on an empty stomach. Most supplements — Haronga included — are taken with a meal, so the easy mistake is swallowing both together at breakfast. Where that rule applies, keep Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride on its own and move Haronga to a meal later in the day.

This may not be true of your version. Food instructions belong to the product, not the ingredient: two Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride products can carry different directions, and extended-release forms often differ from immediate-release ones. The label we read is quoted below — check the directions on your own box or bottle, or ask your pharmacist, for how to take the exact product you were given.

Take on an empty stomach with a glass of water [ see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ].

From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Doxylamine Succinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride — where that label names a specific product, the instruction is that product's. Read the label on DailyMed ›

A food rule is not an interaction — it is about how much of the medicine you absorb. The directions that came with your own product, and your pharmacist, outrank anything on this page.

About Haronga

What is Haronga?

  • Indigestion and dyspepsia
  • Loss of appetite
  • Digestive complaints
  • Diarrhea (traditional use)
  • Wound healing (traditional, topical)

Haronga (Harungana madagascariensis) is an African tree whose bark and leaves have been used traditionally and in some European products for indigestion and digestive complaints. Evidence for its benefits is very limited, and safety information is sparse, so it should be used with caution and under the guidance of a pharmacist or doctor.

About Doxylamine and Pyridoxine

What Is Doxylamine and Pyridoxine Used For?

Brand names: Diclegis, Bonjesta

Doxylamine and pyridoxine is indicated for the treatment of nausea and vomiting of pregnancy in women who do not respond to conservative management. This applies to the delayed-release tablets (including Diclegis and the generic doxylamine succinate and pyridoxine hydrochloride delayed-release tablets) as well as to Bonjesta, the extended-release tablet formulation.

None of these products have been studied in women with hyperemesis gravidarum (severe, persistent vomiting in pregnancy), so their use in that setting is not established.
