Hercules Club + Ofatumumab
Ofatumumab brand name: Kesimpta.
We found no known interaction between Hercules Club and Ofatumumab 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.
Hercules Club and Ofatumumab
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 Ofatumumab and Hercules Club 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.
Hercules Club safety at a glance
Pregnancy & breastfeeding ratings are from Natural Medicines (Therapeutic Research Center) — the full detail is in the Special populations card below. Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.
Why No Interaction Is Listed for Ofatumumab
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Ofatumumab is filed under a single classification — immunosuppressants. Hercules Club has documented interactions with 3 drug classes — the most serious being antacids (minor), h2-blockers (minor) and proton pump inhibitors (ppis) (minor) — and none of Ofatumumab’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.
Hercules Club Does Interact With Other Medications
Hercules Club has 36 minor known drug interactions in our database — Ofatumumab isn’t one of them. If you take anything else, check it against the full list below.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Ofatumumab page
“Kesimpta (ofatumumab) treats multiple sclerosis by deliberately quieting part of the immune system, and all 53 supplements on this page raise the same worry from the opposite direction. Each is thought to stimulate immune activity, which could in theory blunt what the drug is trying to do.”

About Hercules Club
What is Hercules Club?
- Toothache and mouth pain
- Indigestion and sluggish digestion
- Rheumatism and joint pain
- Circulation (as a stimulant or tonic)
- Sore throat
Hercules Club (southern prickly ash) is a traditional folk remedy used mainly for toothache, digestion, and joint pain, often by chewing the bark, which causes a tingling, numbing feeling in the mouth. Modern scientific evidence supporting these uses is very limited, and safety has not been well studied, so it is best to talk with a pharmacist or doctor before using it.
Zanthoxylum clava-herculis · Rutaceae · Bark, roots, and berries · Dried bark, tinctures, teas, and topical preparations
An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Hercules Club is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Hercules Club record says about it on its own.
Hercules Club: dosing
There is no established standardized dose for Hercules Club. Traditional use varied widely, and product strengths differ from one brand to another.If you choose to use a commercial product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them.
