The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Lobelia 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.

Lobelia 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 Lobelia 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. Lobelia has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being lithium (moderate) — 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

What to actually watch for

What Lobelia Itself Has Been Linked To

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

  • Seizures Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Orally, lobelia can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, coughing, dizziness, tremors, and throat irritation. These adverse effects have been reported with doses as low as 50 mg (4,16414). Lobelia leaf can cause toxicity when taken in doses of 600 mg or higher. Symptoms of lobelia toxicity include sweating, tachycardia, convulsions, hypothermia, hypotension, coma, and death (4,11).”

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Amphetamine page

“Amphetamine (Dyanavel XR, Adzenys ER, Mydayis) is a prescription stimulant, usually taken for ADHD, and its interaction list is one to approach with genuine care. Of the 130 supplements and herbal ingredients on file, 16 carry a major rating, and many of those work the same way, either inhibiting monoamine oxidase, as yohimbe does, or…”

About Lobelia

What is Lobelia?

  • Asthma and breathing problems
  • Cough and bronchitis
  • Smoking cessation aid
  • Muscle relaxation

Lobelia is a traditional herb once used for breathing problems and to help people quit smoking, but reliable evidence supporting these uses is lacking. It can be toxic in higher amounts, causing serious side effects, so it should be used with great caution and only under professional guidance.

Lobelia inflata · Campanulaceae · Dried aerial parts (leaves, stems, flowers, and seeds) · Capsules, tinctures, liquid extracts, teas, and dried herb

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

Lobelia: dosing

There is no well-established or standardized safe dose of lobelia. Because the plant can be toxic, the amount that helps and the amount that harms may be close together.If a product is used, follow the directions on the label carefully and do not exceed them. We do not recommend self-dosing this herb without professional guidance.
