Humann Superbeets Heart Chews and Hydrochlorothiazide, Propranolol

These two interact in 2 distinct ways. Each one is explained separately below.

Why Are There 2 Interactions?

Humann Superbeets Heart Chews interacts with whole categories of medication. Hydrochlorothiazide, Propranolol falls into 2 of those categories, so it can interact with Humann Superbeets Heart Chews in 2 different ways. We’ve listed each one below — your overall risk is driven by the most serious of them (Minor).

Minor

Antihypertensive Drugs

Why this applies to Hydrochlorothiazide, Propranolol

Hydrochlorothiazide, Propranolol falls under Antihypertensive Drugs — the group Humann Superbeets Heart Chews interacts with.

Each serving of HumanN SuperBeets includes 500mg of beetroot powder (2 chews). Beetroot is rich in nitrates, which have the potential to widen blood vessels (vasodilation) and, in turn, possibly lower blood pressure. While there is a theoretical concern about the nitrate content in beets causing a blood pressure drop, research consistently indicates that any impact is generally minor and short-lived. However, it's crucial to be aware that blood pressure medications alone can cause dizziness and lightheadedness. Combining them with beet supplements might heighten the risk of experiencing these side effects due to the temporary vasodilation caused by the nitrates in beet.
Severity Minor Likelihood Possible Evidence A

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 practical picture with this combo pill. The Inderide you're taking pairs a water pill (hydrochlorothiazide) with a beta-blocker (propranolol), and together they already work to bring your blood pressure down. The beets in these chews supply nitrates, which can gently relax and widen your blood vessels. So you're nudging blood pressure in the same direction from two angles.

The good news: research shows the beet effect is usually mild and short-lived, so this is rated a minor interaction. Still, the overlap could make you a little more prone to dizziness, lightheadedness, or feeling faint when you stand up too fast. If you'd like to try the chews, it's worth a quick chat with your pharmacist or doctor first, and standing up slowly is a smart habit either way.

Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates

2 of 2

Hydrochlorothiazide, Propranolol also falls under Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates.

Each serving of HumanN SuperBeets includes 150mg of grape seed extract (2 chews). Laboratory studies suggest that grape seed extract might have inhibitory effects on the CYP2D6 metabolizing enzyme. If this enzyme is inhibited, drugs metabolized by it may undergo slower metabolism, potentially leading to (in many cases) higher-than-normal drug levels. Elevated drug levels can increase the risk of experiencing side effects. However, it's crucial to highlight that, as of now, there is no documented or reported instance of this specific interaction occurring in human studies.
Severity Minor Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D

Interaction has been demonstrated in animal or in lab research but has been shown not to occur in humans..

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's the deal with your Inderide, which combines hydrochlorothiazide (a water pill) and propranolol (a beta-blocker). The propranolol half is partly broken down by a liver enzyme called CYP2D6. The grape seed extract in these chews might slow that enzyme down a little in lab tests, which could in theory let more propranolol build up in your system.

If that happened, you could notice propranolol's effects feeling stronger, like a slower heart rate, lower blood pressure, lightheadedness, or fatigue. That said, this is only a theoretical, lab-based concern with no real human cases reported, and it's rated minor and unlikely. The bigger point worth mentioning: both this supplement and your medicine can lower blood pressure, so keep an eye on how you feel and chat with your pharmacist before adding it.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Hydrochlorothiazide, Propranolol page

“Inderide combines hydrochlorothiazide, a water pill, with propranolol, a beta blocker, so a supplement that also lowers blood pressure or pulls potassium out of the body hits the drug on its own turf. That describes most of this list, and I'd approach it with genuine care.”
