Koch's Glycoside and Primaquine Phosphate

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 Primaquine Phosphate and Koch's Glycoside 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 Koch's Glycoside at all — not against Primaquine Phosphate, 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.

What to actually watch for

What Primaquine Phosphate’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Koch's Glycoside. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Primaquine Phosphate’s own FDA label, for the medication by itself. Knowing the drug’s own list makes it easier to work out the likely cause if something new turns up while you take both. 2 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Anemia Worth acting on
  • A low white blood cell count Worth acting on
  • Stomach pain
  • Vomiting
  • Nausea

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Primaquine Phosphate. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 81 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Primaquine Phosphate that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Koch's Glycoside’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Koch's Glycoside side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Koch's Glycoside has no side effects.

Everything else you take

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Primaquine Phosphate

This page covers Koch's Glycoside only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Primaquine Phosphate page lists 18 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Coffee Charcoal (moderate), European Mandrake (moderate), Glucomannan (moderate) and Grapefruit (moderate).

By severity: 1 major · 8 moderate · 9 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Primaquine Phosphate page

“Activated charcoal, the only major-rated interaction among the 18 on file, can bind primaquine phosphate (Primaquine) in the gut and shrink how much of each dose your body actually absorbs. That matters more than usual, because this antimalarial exists to wipe out the malaria parasites hiding in the liver, and an under-absorbed course…”

Where does our data come from?
  • Source: the Natural Medicines (TRC Healthcare) clinical database — the evidence-graded professional reference for herb & supplement interactions. Koch's Glycoside is not yet covered by that licensed database, so its write-up cites publicly available medical sources directly (see the references below).
  • Citation library: 103,510 references behind our interaction content, 65,311 of them resolved to verified PubMed/DOI sources. See every Koch's Glycoside reference on this page ↓
  • Freshness: we automatically re-check this combination every week — this pair was last verified September 20, 2026. The Koch's Glycoside and Primaquine Phosphate records this page draws on were last updated June 22, 2026.
  • What “no known interaction” means: no documented interaction in the sources above — not a guarantee of safety. Supplements are studied far less than prescription drugs, so we say exactly what the evidence supports, and nothing more.

About Koch's Glycoside

What is Koch's Glycoside?

"Koch's Glycoside" is not a recognized dietary supplement, herb, or established medical compound, and there is no reliable information available about its source, safety, or effects. The name may be a confusion with discredited historical "cancer cures" (such as William F. Koch's controversial "glyoxylide") rather than a true plant glycoside. Because nothing trustworthy is known about it, we cannot recommend using it, and you should speak with a pharmacist or doctor before trying any product sold under this name.

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

Koch's Glycoside: dosing

There is no established or safe dose for Koch's Glycoside. No standardized preparation exists, and no health authority provides dosing guidance for it.We cannot recommend any amount. If you are considering a product sold under this name, bring the actual label and ingredient list to a pharmacist or doctor so they can help you understand what you would actually be taking.
