Drug & supplement interaction

Lobelia + Rabeprazole

Rabeprazole brand name: Pariet.

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 20, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Lobelia and Rabeprazole 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.

Interaction report

Lobelia and Rabeprazole

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 Rabeprazole 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 Rabeprazole

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Rabeprazole is filed under 9 classifications — including proton pump inhibitors (ppis), cytochrome p450 2c19 (cyp2c19) inhibitors, cytochrome p450 1a2 (cyp1a2) inducers. Lobelia has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being lithium (moderate) — and none of Rabeprazole’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.

What to actually watch for

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Lobelia and Rabeprazole May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

This is not an interaction. Neither one changes how your body handles the other, and nothing here says they react together. What our sources do show is that each has separately been linked to the effects below — so taking both can make those effects more likely to turn up, and harder to pin on one or the other if they do.

  • Sore throat / Diarrhea / Vomiting / Nausea Additional detail

    Lobelia

    “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).”

Reported for Lobelia but not commonly for Rabeprazole: seizures, a fast or pounding heartbeat, low blood pressure and dizziness.

Effects for Rabeprazole come from the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of its FDA label; effects for Lobelia come from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, quoted above. Wording is matched across sources by our own clinical vocabulary, so treat this as a prompt to pay attention, not a diagnosis.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Rabeprazole

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Grapefruit (major), St. John's Wort (major), Acacia Rigidula (moderate) and Adrafinil (moderate).

By severity: 3 major · 119 moderate · 50 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Rabeprazole page

“Rabeprazole (Pariet) quiets stomach acid for reflux and ulcers, but its supplement list deserves genuine care, with three serious entries to understand before anything else. Most items matter because they change how the liver breaks rabeprazole down, so its level can drift up or down.”

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.

About Rabeprazole

What Is Rabeprazole Used For?

Brand name: Pariet

Rabeprazole delayed-release tablets treat a range of acid-related conditions in adults, including healing and maintenance of erosive or ulcerative GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease), symptomatic GERD, duodenal ulcers, and pathological hypersecretory conditions such as Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. They are also used alongside antibiotics (amoxicillin and clarithromycin) to eradicate H. pylori bacteria and reduce the risk of duodenal ulcer coming back.

In adolescents 12 years and older, rabeprazole delayed-release tablets are approved for short-term treatment of symptomatic GERD. Both AcipHex and Rabeprazole Sodium delayed-release tablets share this indication set for adults and adolescents 12 and older.

Taking Lobelia and Rabeprazole Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Lobelia with Rabeprazole?
We do not list a known interaction between Lobelia and Rabeprazole. That does not guarantee the combination is risk-free, so confirm with your pharmacist or doctor — especially if you take other medications or have a health condition.
Do Lobelia and Rabeprazole have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to 4 of the same effects. That is not an interaction: neither changes how your body handles the other. It does mean that if one of those effects turns up, it can be harder to tell which one is behind it. They are listed on this page with the source behind each.
How was the Lobelia and Rabeprazole combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Rabeprazole is filed under 9 classifications, and Lobelia has documented interactions with 1 drug class — none of Rabeprazole's classifications are among them. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded in our dataset, so this describes how the check was run rather than guaranteeing safety.
Does Lobelia interact with any other medications?
Yes. Lobelia has 1 documented drug interaction in our database — Rabeprazole is simply not one of them. If you take anything else, it is worth checking each one; they are all listed on this page.
Does Rabeprazole interact with any supplements?
Yes. Rabeprazole has documented interactions with 172 supplements in our database — Lobelia is not one of them. The Rabeprazole interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
