Lavender Cotton + Larotrectinib
Larotrectinib brand name: Vitrakvi.
We found no known interaction between Lavender Cotton and Larotrectinib 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.
Lavender Cotton and Larotrectinib
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 Larotrectinib and Lavender Cotton 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 Lavender Cotton at all — not against Larotrectinib, 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.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Larotrectinib page
“Nearly everything on this page interacts with larotrectinib (Vitrakvi) in one of two directions, raising or lowering how much of the drug ends up in your blood. Larotrectinib treats cancers driven by an NTRK gene fusion, and it is cleared by a liver enzyme called CYP3A4, so herbs that speed that enzyme up can drain the drug's effect wh…”

Where Lavender Cotton and Larotrectinib Sit Against Everything Else

Where does our data come from?
- Source: the Natural Medicines (TRC Healthcare) clinical database — the evidence-graded professional reference for herb & supplement interactions. Lavender Cotton 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 Lavender Cotton reference on this page ↓
- Freshness: we automatically re-check this combination every week — this pair was last verified September 20, 2026. The Lavender Cotton and Larotrectinib 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 Lavender Cotton
What is Lavender Cotton?
- Digestive upset
- Intestinal worms (traditional)
- Insect repellent
- Minor skin irritation
- Menstrual discomfort (traditional)
Lavender cotton (Santolina chamaecyparissus) is a fragrant Mediterranean shrub used in folk medicine for digestion, worms, and as an insect repellent, but there is very little modern human research to support any of these uses. Because reliable safety and effectiveness data are lacking, it is best used cautiously and avoided in pregnancy and breastfeeding. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before trying it.
Santolina chamaecyparissus · Asteraceae · Flowering tops, leaves, and essential oil · Dried herb, tea/infusion, essential oil, topical preparations
An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Lavender Cotton is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Lavender Cotton record says about it on its own.
Lavender Cotton: dosing
There is no established or standardized dose for lavender cotton. Traditional use as a mild tea does not mean a safe dose has been scientifically defined, and the essential oil is much more concentrated than the dried herb.If you choose to use a product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them. Essential oils should be kept out of reach of children and never taken by mouth without professional guidance.

About Larotrectinib
What Is Larotrectinib Used For?
Brand name: Vitrakvi
Vitrakvi is used to treat adult and pediatric patients with solid tumors that have a neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase (NTRK) gene fusion — a specific genetic alteration that can drive tumor growth. It is used when the tumor is metastatic (has spread) or when surgery to remove it would likely cause serious harm, and when there are no satisfactory alternative treatments or the cancer has continued to grow after prior treatment.
Patients must be selected for Vitrakvi therapy based on an FDA-approved test that confirms the NTRK gene fusion in their tumor. This approval is under the FDA's accelerated approval pathway, based on how many patients responded to treatment and how long those responses lasted. Continued approval may depend on results from follow-up clinical trials.
