Hemp Agrimony and Benzhydrocodone, Acetaminophen

Here is the interaction we found between these two, with the evidence behind it.

Moderate

HEPATOTOXIC DRUGS

Why this applies to Benzhydrocodone, Acetaminophen

Benzhydrocodone, Acetaminophen falls under HEPATOTOXIC DRUGS — the group Hemp Agrimony interacts with.

Hemp agrimony contains hepatotoxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PA). Theoretically, using hemp agrimony with hepatotoxic drugs might have additive adverse effects on the liver. Some drugs that can adversely affect the liver include acetaminophen (Tylenol and others), amiodarone (Cordarone), carbamazepine (Tegretol), isoniazid (INH), methotrexate (Rheumatrex), methyldopa (Aldomet), fluconazole (Diflucan), itraconazole (Sporanox), erythromycin (Erythrocin, Ilosone, others), phenytoin (Dilantin), lovastatin (Mevacor), pravastatin (Pravachol), simvastatin (Zocor), and many others.
Severity Moderate Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Interaction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists.

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's the key thing to know: the acetaminophen part of Apadaz is processed by your liver, and too much of it is a well-known cause of liver injury. Hemp agrimony can contain pyrrolizidine alkaloids, natural compounds that may also stress the liver. Putting both together could, in theory, add up to extra strain on that organ.

I'll be honest with you, this concern is based on how these substances behave, not on solid studies in people, so it's more caution than proven danger. Still, because liver problems can be quiet at first and then turn serious, I'd steer clear of internal hemp agrimony while taking this pain medicine. Please check with your pharmacist or doctor before combining them.

About Hemp Agrimony

What is Hemp Agrimony?

Hemp Agrimony
  • Digestive complaints
  • Cold and flu symptoms
  • Respiratory conditions
  • Mild fever
  • Traditional 'tonic' or detox use

Hemp agrimony is a traditional European herb that has been used for digestion, colds, and as a general tonic, but there is very little reliable human research to support these uses. More importantly, the plant can contain pyrrolizidine alkaloids that may harm the liver, so most experts do not recommend taking it internally. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before using any product that contains hemp agrimony.

About Benzhydrocodone and Acetaminophen

What Is Benzhydrocodone and Acetaminophen Used For?

Brand name: Apadaz

Apadaz is indicated for the short-term management of acute pain — up to 14 days — that is severe enough to require an opioid and for which non-opioid treatments have not worked or are not expected to work. It combines benzhydrocodone (a prodrug that converts to the opioid hydrocodone) with acetaminophen.

Because of serious risks including addiction, abuse, and misuse, Apadaz is reserved for patients who have not tolerated or have not gotten adequate relief from alternative pain treatments. It should not be used for an extended period of time unless the pain remains severe enough to require an opioid and alternatives remain inadequate.
