Laburnum + Naloxone
Naloxone brand names: Narcan, Zimhi, Rivive.
We found no known interaction between Laburnum and Naloxone 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 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.
Laburnum and Naloxone
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 Naloxone and Laburnum 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 Laburnum at all — not against Naloxone, 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.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Naloxone
This page covers Laburnum only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Naloxone page lists 3 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.
The most serious there right now: 1,4-butanediol (moderate), Gamma Butyrolactone (gbl) (moderate) and Gamma-hydroxybutyrate (ghb) (moderate).
By severity: 3 moderate.
From our pharmacist’s overview on the Naloxone page
“The list of supplements that interact with naloxone, the emergency spray or injection (Narcan, Zimhi, Rivive) that reverses opioid overdoses, is short and unusual. All three entries are forms of the same substance: gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) and two chemicals the body converts into it, GBL and 1,4-butanediol.”

About Laburnum
What is Laburnum?
- Historically explored as a smoking-cessation aid (due to cytisine content)
- Traditional folk use as a purgative or emetic
- Ornamental garden plant
- Source of the alkaloid cytisine
Laburnum is a poisonous ornamental tree, not a safe dietary supplement. All parts of the plant—especially the seeds—contain the toxic alkaloid cytisine and can cause serious poisoning. Do not eat or take any part of the Laburnum plant; consult a doctor or poison control immediately if ingestion is suspected.
Laburnum anagyroides · Fabaceae · Seeds, flowers, bark, and other plant parts (all considered toxic) · Not used as a commercial supplement; the plant is grown as an ornamental tree
An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Laburnum is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Laburnum record says about it on its own.
Laburnum: dosing
There is no safe or established dose of Laburnum. It is not a dietary supplement, and no amount of the raw plant is considered safe to consume.Any information you may see about cytisine doses refers to purified, prescription-type products used under medical supervision in certain countries—not to the Laburnum plant. Do not attempt to make or take anything from this tree.

About Naloxone Injection
What Is Naloxone Injection Used For?
Brand names: Narcan, Zimhi, Rivive
Naloxone Hydrochloride injection is used for the emergency treatment of known or suspected opioid overdose — reversing dangerous slowing of breathing and loss of consciousness caused by opioids. It is also approved for use in pediatric patients of all ages.
Naloxone Hydrochloride injection is additionally indicated specifically for military personnel and chemical incident responders: for emergency treatment of patients 12 and older where high-potency opioids such as fentanyl analogues have been used as a chemical weapon, and for temporary protection against breathing and nervous system depression when entering an area contaminated with such opioids. Zimhi (naloxone HCl) is a pre-filled, single-dose injectable product approved for intramuscular or subcutaneous use in known or suspected opioid overdose.
