Lousewort and Terconazole

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 Terconazole and Lousewort 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 Lousewort at all — not against Terconazole, 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 Terconazole’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Lousewort. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Terconazole’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.

  • Sun sensitivity
  • Fever
  • Itching
  • Stomach pain
  • Headache mentioned in 5.5% of FDA reports for Terconazole

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Terconazole. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 805 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Terconazole that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Lousewort’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Lousewort side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Lousewort has no side effects.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Terconazole

This page covers Lousewort only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Terconazole page lists 20 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 Guar Gum (moderate).

By severity: 1 major · 7 moderate · 12 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Terconazole page

“Terconazole (Terazole) is a vaginal antifungal for yeast infections, and its supplement list earns genuine caution because of one standout: activated charcoal, the only major-rated interaction among the 20 on file. Charcoal binds many medicines and can lower their levels even when a drug is not taken by mouth, which makes it the entry…”

Where does our data come from?
  • Source: the Natural Medicines (TRC Healthcare) clinical database — the evidence-graded professional reference for herb & supplement interactions. Lousewort 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 Lousewort reference on this page ↓
  • Freshness: we automatically re-check this combination every week — this pair was last verified September 20, 2026. The Lousewort and Terconazole 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 Lousewort

What is Lousewort?

  • Muscle relaxation
  • Sleep and relaxation
  • Mild pain relief
  • Stress and tension

Lousewort refers to several plants in the Pedicularis genus, traditionally used as a mild muscle relaxant and calming herb. There is very little scientific research on its safety or effectiveness in humans, and some species may contain toxic compounds, so caution is strongly advised.

Pedicularis spp. · Orobanchaceae · Aerial parts (flowers, leaves, and stems) · Tea, tincture, dried herb, capsules, smoking blends

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

Lousewort: dosing

There is no established standard dose for lousewort. Traditional use varies widely, and no clinical studies have determined a safe or effective amount.If you choose to use a product, follow the directions on the label and start with the lowest suggested amount.

About Terconazole

What Is Terconazole Used For?

Brand name: Terazole

Terconazole vaginal cream and vaginal suppositories are both indicated for the local treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis — commonly known as a vaginal yeast infection caused by Candida species. Because these products only work against Candida, a healthcare provider should confirm the diagnosis before or during treatment.

Before starting a second course of treatment with terconazole vaginal suppositories, the diagnosis should be re-confirmed by lab tests and other possible causes of symptoms should be ruled out.
