The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Jequirity and Amphetamine 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.

Jequirity and Amphetamine

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 Amphetamine and Jequirity 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.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Amphetamine

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Amphetamine is filed under 6 classifications — including monoamine oxidase inhibitors (maois), amphetamines, stimulant drugs. Jequirity has documented interactions with 3 drug classes — the most serious being anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs (moderate), antidiabetes drugs (moderate) and cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) substrates (minor) — and none of Amphetamine’s classifications are among them.

Classification data comes from our licensed Natural Medicines dataset. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded there, so this describes how the check was run — it is not a safety guarantee.

Keep it in perspective

Jequirity Does Interact With Other Medications

Jequirity has 208 moderate, 603 minor known drug interactions in our database — Amphetamine isn’t one of them. If you take anything else, check it against the full list below.

What Jequirity Itself Has Been Linked To

This is not an interaction — nothing below involves Amphetamine. It is the side-effect record for Jequirity on its own, from the licensed Natural Medicines monograph. If something new turns up after you add Jequirity, this list is the first place to look. 6 entries are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Dehydration Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Eating, chewing, or sucking on jequirity beans with cracked or crushed shells can cause stomach cramping, nausea, vomiting, and severe diarrhea that may be bloody (6,3499,26893,27025,95220,95221,100257). Other symptoms include erosions of the intestinal epithelium.”

About Jequirity

What is Jequirity?

Jequirity
  • Asthma and cough
  • Fever
  • Sore throat and bronchitis
  • Liver complaints (hepatitis)
  • Constipation
  • Traditional infectious-disease remedies

Jequirity (Abrus precatorius) is a tropical plant whose bright red, black-tipped seeds contain abrin, one of the most toxic plant proteins known. Despite a long history in traditional medicine, the seeds are dangerously poisonous and there is no reliable evidence that it is safe or effective. It should not be used as a supplement or medicine.

Abrus precatorius · Fabaceae · Seeds, roots, and leaves · Traditional preparations (rarely used today); seeds are sometimes used in jewelry and beadwork

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

Jequirity: dosing

There is no safe or established dose of jequirity for use as a supplement or medicine. Because the seeds contain a deadly toxin, no amount is considered safe to swallow.We do not recommend taking jequirity in any form.

Brand names: Dyanavel XR, Adensys XR-ODT, Mydayis, Adzenys ER

Amphetamine treats Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in patients 6 years and older. Adzenys XR-ODT, Dyanavel XR, and the amphetamine extended-release orally disintegrating tablet formulations are specifically approved for ADHD in this age group.

Amphetamine Sulfate tablets and Evekeo (amphetamine sulfate tablets) are also approved for narcolepsy (a sleep disorder causing uncontrollable daytime sleepiness) and as a short-term aid in a calorie-restricted weight-loss program for exogenous obesity (weight gain from external factors like overeating) in patients who have not responded to other approaches.
