Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir brand name: Vosevi.

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 13, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Honeysuckle and Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir 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 Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir states a food rule worth keeping to, and 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.

Interaction report

Honeysuckle and Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir

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 Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir and Honeysuckle 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.

Honeysuckle safety at a glance

Honeysuckle overall Use caution Often used as a tea with few reported problems, but high-quality safety data in humans is limited.
Pregnancy Avoid Not enough safety information, so it is best avoided during pregnancy.
Breastfeeding Avoid Not enough safety information, so it is best avoided while breastfeeding.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir

Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir is filed under 9 classifications — including cytochrome p450 2b6 (cyp2b6) substrates, cytochrome p450 2c8 (cyp2c8) substrates, cytochrome p450 1a2 (cyp1a2) substrates.

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Honeysuckle and Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir May Share a Side Effect

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.

  • A skin rash Additional detail

    Honeysuckle

    “Topically, applying honeysuckle to the skin has been associated with contact dermatitis in a case report. Orally, a case of biopsy-confirmed allergic drug eruption is reported in a young adult male after taking honeysuckle granules 30 grams over a 24-hour period. Symptoms resolved with discontinuation of honeysuckle and 2-weeks of antihistamine and glucocorticoid therapy.”

How to take them

Some Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir Products Have a Food Rule — Honeysuckle Should Not Break It

At least one FDA label for a product containing Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir says to take it with food. If you take Honeysuckle on an empty stomach out of habit, keep them separate — and take Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir 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 Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir 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.

( 2.1 ) Recommended dosage: One tablet (400 mg of sofosbuvir, 100 mg of velpatasvir, and 100 mg of voxilaprevir) taken orally once daily with food.

From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir — where that label names a specific product, the instruction is that product's. Read the label on DailyMed ›

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.

“Vosevi (sofosbuvir, velpatasvir, and voxilaprevir) cures hepatitis C over a single short course, and that is exactly why I would be genuinely careful with supplements while taking it. Anything that drags its blood levels down can cost you the cure itself.”

About Honeysuckle

What is Honeysuckle?

  • Colds and sore throat
  • Fever
  • Inflammation
  • Skin rashes and sores
  • Digestive upset

Honeysuckle, especially Japanese honeysuckle flower (Lonicera japonica), is a staple of traditional Chinese medicine used mainly for colds, sore throat, and inflammation. Modern human evidence for these uses is limited, so it should be seen as a traditional remedy rather than a proven treatment. It is generally well tolerated as a tea, but talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using it, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, or taking other medicines.

Lonicera japonica · Caprifoliaceae · Flowers (flower buds), and sometimes stems and leaves · Tea, dried flower buds, capsules, tinctures, topical preparations, and combination herbal formulas

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

Honeysuckle: dosing

There is no standard, well-established dose for honeysuckle. The right amount depends on the form (tea, capsule, tincture) and the specific product.The safest approach is to follow the directions on the product label and not take more than recommended.

Taking Honeysuckle and Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Honeysuckle with Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir?
We do not list a known interaction between Honeysuckle and Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir. 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 Honeysuckle and Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to one 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.
Should I take Honeysuckle and Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir at the same time of day?
At least one FDA label for a product containing Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir says to take it with food. If you take Honeysuckle on an empty stomach out of habit, keep them separate and take Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir with a meal where the label says to. Food instructions belong to the product rather than the ingredient — two Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir products can differ — so check the directions on your own box.

Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir is filed under 9 classifications, and Honeysuckle has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir'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 Honeysuckle interact with any other medications?
Yes. Honeysuckle has 122 documented drug interactions in our database — Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir is simply not one of them. If you take anything else, it is worth checking each one; they are all listed on this page.
