Drug & supplement interaction

Henbane + Nadolol

Nadolol brand names: Corgard, Nadolol.

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 20, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Henbane and Nadolol 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 two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.

Henbane and Nadolol

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 Nadolol and Henbane 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 Nadolol

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Nadolol is filed under 5 classifications — including beta-blockers, antihypertensive drugs, seizure threshold lowering drugs. Henbane has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being anticholinergic drugs (major) — and none of Nadolol’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

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Henbane and Nadolol May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

This is not an interaction. Neither one changes how your body handles the other, and nothing here says they react together. What our sources do show is that each has separately been linked to the effects below — so taking both can make those effects more likely to turn up, and harder to pin on one or the other if they do. 3 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Memory problems / Hallucinations / Confusion Worth acting on Additional detail

    Henbane

    “Orally, henbane can cause anticholinergic effects including dry mouth, vision disturbances, tachycardia, difficult urination, constipation, and skin flushing (2,18). At higher doses, poisoning can occur due to the hyoscyamine and scopolamine constituents of henbane.”

Effects for Nadolol come from the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of its FDA label; effects for Henbane come from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, quoted above. Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 7,530 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Nadolol that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Wording is matched across sources by our own clinical vocabulary, so treat this as a prompt to pay attention, not a diagnosis.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Nadolol

This page covers Henbane only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Nadolol page lists 145 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), American Hellebore (major), American Mistletoe (major), Green Tea (major) and Indian Snakeroot (major).

By severity: 6 major · 119 moderate · 20 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Nadolol page

“If you take nadolol (Corgard) for blood pressure, angina, or heart rhythm, treat this list with real care, and green tea is the surprise at the top. In a clinical study, green tea cut nadolol blood levels by roughly 85 percent, which can quietly leave you undertreated.”

About Henbane

What is Henbane?

Henbane
  • Pain relief
  • Muscle spasms and cramps
  • Sleep and sedation
  • Asthma and breathing problems (traditional)
  • Toothache (traditional)

Henbane is a highly poisonous plant containing potent alkaloids like hyoscyamine and scopolamine, and even small amounts can cause serious or deadly poisoning. While its compounds have real medical uses, these belong in carefully controlled prescription drugs, not in self-made or self-dosed herbal products. We strongly advise against using henbane as a supplement.

Hyoscyamus niger · Solanaceae · Leaves, flowering tops, and seeds · Rarely available; historically used as dried herb, tinctures, extracts, and topical oils. Not recommended for self-use.

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

Henbane: dosing

There is no safe, established dose of henbane for self-use. The amount of toxic alkaloids varies widely from plant to plant and product to product, which makes safe dosing impossible at home.The medical compounds found in henbane (such as hyoscyamine and scopolamine) are only used safely as standardized prescription medicines, prepared and dosed by professionals.We do not recommend using henbane as a supplement.

About Nadolol

What Is Nadolol Used For?

Brand names: Corgard, Nadolol

Nadolol tablets are used for two main conditions: high blood pressure (hypertension) and angina pectoris (ongoing chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart). Lowering high blood pressure reduces the risk of stroke and heart attack.

For high blood pressure, nadolol may be prescribed on its own or combined with other blood pressure medications, especially thiazide-type diuretics (water pills). For angina, it is used for long-term management to help reduce how often chest pain occurs.

Most-Reported Side Effects for Nadolol

From FAERS, the FDA’s public side-effect reporting system (7,530 reports, all brands). Reports are voluntary and are not proof the drug caused the effect.

Macular degeneration 831 reports
Nausea 673 reports
Headache 603 reports

Taking Henbane and Nadolol Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Henbane with Nadolol?
We do not list a known interaction between Henbane and Nadolol. That does not guarantee the combination is risk-free, so confirm with your pharmacist or doctor — especially if you take other medications or have a health condition.
Do Henbane and Nadolol have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to 7 of the same effects. That is not an interaction: neither changes how your body handles the other. It does mean that if one of those effects turns up, it can be harder to tell which one is behind it. They are listed on this page with the source behind each.
How was the Henbane and Nadolol combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Nadolol is filed under 5 classifications, and Henbane has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Nadolol'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 Henbane interact with any other medications?
Yes. Henbane has 195 documented drug interactions in our database — Nadolol is simply not one of them. If you take anything else, it is worth checking each one; they are all listed on this page.
Does Nadolol interact with any supplements?
Yes. Nadolol has documented interactions with 145 supplements in our database — Henbane is not one of them. The Nadolol interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
