Drug & supplement interaction

Jasmine + Levothyroxine

Levothyroxine brand names: Euthyrox, Levothroid, Unithroid, Synthroid, Levoxyl, and others.

No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Jasmine and Levothyroxine 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 Levothyroxine 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.

Jasmine and Levothyroxine

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 Levothyroxine and Jasmine 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 Jasmine at all — not against Levothyroxine, 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.

Jasmine safety at a glance

Jasmine overall Use caution Jasmine tea and aromatherapy are generally well tolerated, but the concentrated essential oil should not be swallowed and can irritate skin.
Pregnancy Use caution Food-amount jasmine tea is likely fine, but avoid medicinal amounts and undiluted essential oil unless your doctor approves.
Breastfeeding Use caution Not enough reliable safety data exists, so use only with guidance from your doctor or pharmacist.

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

What to actually watch for

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Jasmine and Levothyroxine May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

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. 3 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Wheezing / Chest pain Worth acting on Additional detail

    Jasmine

    “Topically, jasmine essential oil and jasmine flower can cause allergic contact dermatitis. Among patients who are sensitive to fragrance materials, jasmine may cause delayed-type hypersensitivity. The reported prevalence of this type of reaction ranges from 0.4% to 1.6%. One case of type 1 hypersensitivity to jasmine has also been reported.”

How to take them

Some Levothyroxine Products Have a Food Rule — Jasmine Should Not Break It

At least one FDA label for a product containing Levothyroxine says to take it on an empty stomach. Most supplements — Jasmine included — are taken with a meal, so the easy mistake is swallowing both together at breakfast. Where that rule applies, keep Levothyroxine on its own and move Jasmine to a meal later in the day.

This may not be true of your version. Food instructions belong to the product, not the ingredient: two Levothyroxine 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.

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.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Levothyroxine page

“Levothyroxine replaces a hormone your body measures in tiny amounts, so small shifts in its blood level show up in how you feel, and I treat this list with genuine care. Nearly everything on it does one of two things: blocks the pill from being absorbed in the gut, the way everyday minerals like calcium do by binding it into complexes,…”

About Jasmine

What is Jasmine?

  • Anxiety and stress relief
  • Aromatherapy and relaxation
  • Sleep support
  • Mood enhancement
  • Skin care
  • Flavoring for tea

Jasmine is a fragrant flowering plant most often used in aromatherapy and as a tea flavoring, with popular use for relaxation, mood, and sleep. Human evidence for its health benefits is limited and mostly preliminary, so it is best thought of as a gentle, pleasant addition rather than a proven treatment. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using jasmine products, especially the concentrated essential oil.

Jasminum officinale · Oleaceae · Flowers and essential oil (some uses also involve leaves) · Essential oil, tea (often blended with green tea), absolute oil for aromatherapy, lotions, and infusions

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

Jasmine: dosing

There is no official or standardized dose for jasmine. The right amount depends on the form you use, such as tea, essential oil for a diffuser, or a skin product.For aromatherapy, follow the directions on the product and dilute essential oils as instructed. For tea, follow the package brewing directions. Never drink essential oils.

About Levothyroxine

What Is Levothyroxine Used For?

Brand names: Euthyrox, Levothroid, Unithroid, Synthroid, Levoxyl, Levo-T, Eltroxin, Estre, Levothyroxine, Novothyrox, Levolet

Levothyroxine replaces or supplements the thyroid hormone your body isn't making enough of. It's used for hypothyroidism — an underactive thyroid — in adults, children, and even newborns, whether the cause is the thyroid gland itself, the pituitary gland, or the hypothalamus in the brain.

It's also used alongside surgery and radioiodine treatment in people with certain types of thyroid cancer, to help suppress the hormone that can stimulate cancer growth. It is not meant for weight loss, treating benign thyroid nodules in people who have enough iodine, or for hypothyroidism during recovery from a temporary condition called subacute thyroiditis.

Taking Jasmine and Levothyroxine Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Jasmine with Levothyroxine?
We do not list a known interaction between Jasmine and Levothyroxine. 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 Jasmine and Levothyroxine have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to 5 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 Jasmine and Levothyroxine at the same time of day?
At least one FDA label for a product containing Levothyroxine says to take it on an empty stomach, and supplements are usually taken with a meal — so taking them together at breakfast is the easy mistake. Where that applies, keep Levothyroxine on its own and move Jasmine to a meal later in the day. Food instructions belong to the product rather than the ingredient, so check the directions on your own box. This is about absorption, not an interaction.
Does Levothyroxine interact with any supplements?
Yes. Levothyroxine has documented interactions with 50 supplements in our database — Jasmine is not one of them. The Levothyroxine interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
