Drug & supplement interaction

Henbane + Pazopanib

Pazopanib brand name: Votrient.

No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Henbane and Pazopanib 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 Pazopanib states a food rule worth keeping to.

Henbane and Pazopanib

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 Pazopanib 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 Pazopanib

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Pazopanib is filed under 11 classifications — including immunosuppressants, anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs, cytochrome p450 2d6 (cyp2d6) inhibitors. Henbane has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being anticholinergic drugs (major) — and none of Pazopanib’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 Henbane Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Pazopanib. It is the side-effect record for Henbane on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Henbane, this list is the first place to look. 2 entries are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

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

    “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.”

How to take them

Some Pazopanib Products Have a Food Rule — Henbane Should Not Break It

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

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Recommended Dosage : 800 mg orally once daily without food (at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal).

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

“Take a careful look before mixing supplements with pazopanib (Votrient), an oral pill for advanced kidney cancer and certain sarcomas. Fourteen of the 349 ingredients on file are rated major, grapefruit among them, since it can raise pazopanib levels enough to intensify side effects.”

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 Pazopanib

What Is Pazopanib Used For?

Brand name: Votrient

Pazopanib tablets — sold as the brand Votrient and as generic pazopanib — are used to treat two types of advanced cancer in adults: advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC), the most common form of kidney cancer, and advanced soft tissue sarcoma (STS) in patients who have already received prior chemotherapy.

Important limitation: Pazopanib has not been shown to work in adipocytic soft tissue sarcoma (a subtype involving fat cells) or in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), so it is not used for those cancers.

Most-Reported Side Effects for Pazopanib

From FAERS, the FDA’s public side-effect reporting system (26,904 reports, all brands). Reports are voluntary and are not proof the drug caused the effect.

Taking Henbane and Pazopanib Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Henbane with Pazopanib?
We do not list a known interaction between Henbane and Pazopanib. 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.
Should I take Henbane and Pazopanib at the same time of day?
At least one FDA label for a product containing Pazopanib says to take it on an empty stomach, and supplements are usually taken with a meal — so taking them together at breakfast is the easy mistake. Where that applies, keep Pazopanib on its own and move Henbane to a meal later in the day. Food instructions belong to the product rather than the ingredient, so check the directions on your own box. This is about absorption, not an interaction.
How was the Henbane and Pazopanib combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Pazopanib is filed under 11 classifications, and Henbane has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Pazopanib'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 — Pazopanib 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 Pazopanib interact with any supplements?
Yes. Pazopanib has documented interactions with 349 supplements in our database — Henbane is not one of them. The Pazopanib interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
