No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Hemp Agrimony and Palovarotene 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. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the label for Palovarotene states a food rule worth keeping to.

Hemp Agrimony and Palovarotene

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 Palovarotene and Hemp Agrimony 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 Palovarotene

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Palovarotene is filed under 2 classifications — cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) substrates, oral drugs. Hemp Agrimony has documented interactions with 2 drug classes — the most serious being cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) inducers (moderate) and hepatotoxic drugs (moderate) — and none of Palovarotene’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 Hemp Agrimony Itself Has Been Linked To

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

  • Diarrhea / Vomiting Additional detail

    “Orally, the major concern with hemp agrimony preparations is the hepatotoxic pyrrolizidine alkaloid (PA) content. Chronic exposure to other plants containing hepatotoxic PA constituents is associated with veno-occlusive disease. Subacute veno-occlusive disease causes vague symptoms with persistent liver enlargement.”

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

Special populations

Hemp Agrimony in Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy Likely Unsafe

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

Lactation Likely Unsafe

When used orally. Hepatotoxic pyrrolizidine alkaloid (PA) constituents in hemp agrimony are excreted in milk. There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of using hemp agrimony products that do not contain hepatotoxic PAs during lactation.

How to take them

Some Palovarotene Products Have a Food Rule — Hemp Agrimony Should Not Break It

At least one FDA label for a product containing Palovarotene says to take it with food. If you take Hemp Agrimony on an empty stomach out of habit, keep them separate — and take Palovarotene with a meal where the label says to.

This may not be true of your version. Food instructions belong to the product, not the ingredient: two Palovarotene 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.

Refer to Table 1 in Full Prescribing Information for complete pediatric dosing ( 2.2 ) Take SOHONOS with food preferably at same time each day ( 2.3 ).

From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Palovarotene — where that label names a specific product, the instruction is that product's. See the Palovarotene drug page ›

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.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Palovarotene page

“Palovarotene (Sohonos) treats fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva, a rare disease where soft tissue gradually turns to bone, and because it is cleared almost entirely by one liver enzyme, CYP3A4, supplement choices genuinely matter here.

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.

Eupatorium cannabinum · Asteraceae · Aerial parts (leaves, flowers, stems) and roots · Tea, tincture, dried herb, liquid extract

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

Hemp Agrimony: dosing

There is no established safe or standardized dose for hemp agrimony. Because of concerns about liver-toxic compounds, most reliable sources do not recommend taking it internally at all.If a product containing hemp agrimony is available, do not assume any amount is proven safe. When possible, choose better-studied alternatives for whatever condition you are trying to treat.

Taking Hemp Agrimony and Palovarotene Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Hemp Agrimony with Palovarotene?

Should I take Hemp Agrimony and Palovarotene at the same time of day?
At least one FDA label for a product containing Palovarotene says to take it with food. If you take Hemp Agrimony on an empty stomach out of habit, keep them separate and take Palovarotene with a meal where the label says to. Food instructions belong to the product rather than the ingredient — two Palovarotene products can differ — so check the directions on your own box. This is about absorption, not an interaction.
How was the Hemp Agrimony and Palovarotene combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Palovarotene is filed under 2 classifications, and Hemp Agrimony has documented interactions with 2 drug classes — none of Palovarotene's classifications are among them. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded in our dataset, so this describes how the check was run rather than guaranteeing safety.
Does Hemp Agrimony interact with any other medications?
Yes. Hemp Agrimony has 438 documented drug interactions in our database — Palovarotene is simply not one of them. If you take anything else, it is worth checking each one; they are all listed on this page.
