Hesperidin and Berotralstat Hydrochloride

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

Moderate

P-GLYCOPROTEIN SUBSTRATES

Why this applies to Berotralstat Hydrochloride

Berotralstat Hydrochloride falls under P-GLYCOPROTEIN SUBSTRATES — the group Hesperidin interacts with.

Theoretically, hesperidin might inhibit P-glycoprotein-mediated drug efflux and potentially increase levels of drugs that are substrates of P-glycoprotein.
In vitro research shows that hesperidin can inhibit P-glycoprotein efflux. This effect has not been reported in humans.
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 explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's the situation with Orladeyo (berotralstat), which people take to prevent hereditary angioedema attacks. Your body uses a kind of cellular bouncer called P-glycoprotein to push this drug back out of cells. Hesperidin, a citrus flavonoid, may slow that bouncer down. If it does, a bit more berotralstat could hang around, which in theory might nudge up side effects like headache, belly pain, diarrhea, nausea, or back pain.

The honest part: this is only seen in lab dishes, not in real people, so it's mostly theoretical. The occasional orange or glass of juice is very unlikely to matter. Concentrated hesperidin supplements are the bigger question mark, so just run them by your pharmacist or doctor before starting.

About Hesperidin

What is Hesperidin?

Hesperidin
  • Hemorrhoids
  • Varicose veins and poor circulation
  • Leg swelling (venous insufficiency)
  • High blood pressure
  • Antioxidant support

Hesperidin is a flavonoid found in citrus fruits that is often combined with diosmin and used for vein and circulation problems like hemorrhoids and varicose veins. Some evidence supports these uses, but data for many other claims is limited. It is generally well tolerated, but pregnant and breastfeeding people should avoid it because safety has not been established.
