Hyland's Restless Legs and Norgestrel

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 Norgestrel and Hyland's Restless Legs 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.

Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Hyland's Restless Legs at all — not against Norgestrel, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.

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.

Hyland's Restless Legs safety at a glance

Hyland's Restless... overall Use caution Generally low risk because ingredients are highly diluted, but it is not proven to work and is not a substitute for medical evaluation.
Pregnancy Use caution Safety is not well established, so avoid use unless your doctor or pharmacist approves.
Breastfeeding Use caution Safety while breastfeeding is not well established, so check with your doctor or pharmacist first.

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

Pharmacist analysis

In most situations, clinically significant interactions between homeopathic products and prescription or over-the-counter medications are extremely unlikely.

Homeopathic medications, which utilize the principle of 'like cures like', are often highly diluted substances. These dilutions are typically so high that the final remedy contains only a tiny amount of the original active ingredient, if any at all.

In theory, because the concentration of the active ingredient is so low, homeopathic preparations are unlikely to interact with other medications in the body.

This is certainly the case with Hyland's Restful Legs, with all the ingredients diluted at potencies of 6X or 12X. A potency of 6X means that the original substance has been diluted by a factor of 10^6, or one part in a million (i.e.,  for every million parts of the solution, there is one part of the original substance).

It is important to note that not all homeopathic remedies are free of potential drug interactions as some use very low dilutions (which is often the case with zinc-containing products).

Nevertheless, there are no known drug interactions between Hyland's Restful Legs and other medications. It is also thought to be safe to take along with medications to help sleep, like Benadryl, melatonin, and NyQuil, which are commonly used with the product to help sleep.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Norgestrel page

“Norgestrel (Ovrette) is a progestin-only birth control pill, so the biggest danger on this page is not a strange side effect but a pill that quietly stops working. That risk makes this a page for genuine vigilance.”

About Hyland's Restless Legs

What is Hyland's Restless Legs?

Hyland's Restless Legs
  • Restless legs sensations
  • Urge to move the legs
  • Leg twitching or jerking
  • Crawling or itching feelings in the legs
  • Trouble resting due to leg discomfort

Hyland's Restful Legs (often called 'Restless Legs') is a homeopathic product marketed to calm agitated legs so you can rest. Its ingredients are extremely diluted, and there is no strong scientific evidence that it relieves restless legs syndrome. If you have ongoing leg symptoms, talk with a pharmacist or doctor, since restless legs can have treatable underlying causes such as low iron.

Highly diluted homeopathic ingredients (not a single plant part) · Quick-dissolving tablets (daytime and nighttime/PM versions)

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

Hyland's Restless Legs: dosing

There is no scientifically established dose for this product, since it has not been proven effective in clinical trials. Always follow the directions on the package label. Do not exceed the labeled amount, and do not use it as a substitute for treatments your doctor has recommended.

About Progestin-Only (norethindrone) Oral Contraceptives

What Is Progestin-Only (norethindrone) Oral Contraceptives Used For?

Brand names: Ovrette, Orval 21

Norethindrone progestin-only pills — sometimes called the "mini-pill" — are used solely to prevent pregnancy. They do not contain estrogen, which makes them an option for women who cannot or prefer not to use estrogen-containing contraceptives.

When taken perfectly (same time every day, no missed pills), fewer than 1 in 100 women will become pregnant in the first year. With typical use, that number rises to about 9 in 100 — mostly because of late or skipped pills. Consistency is everything with this method.

Most-Reported Side Effects for Norgestrel

From FAERS, the FDA’s public side-effect reporting system (2,254 reports, all brands). Reports are voluntary and are not proof the drug caused the effect.

Heavy menstrual bleeding 247 reports
Pregnancy on oral contraceptive 210 reports
Intermenstrual bleeding 182 reports
Polymenorrhoea 157 reports
Nausea 143 reports
