No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Mangosteen 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.

Mangosteen 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 Mangosteen 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.

Mangosteen safety at a glance

Mangosteen overall Use caution Generally considered safe as a food, but long-term safety of concentrated supplements is not well studied.
Pregnancy Avoid Not enough safety information; avoid supplement amounts during pregnancy.
Breastfeeding Avoid Not enough safety information; avoid supplement amounts while breastfeeding.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

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. Mangosteen has documented interactions with 2 drug classes — the most serious being anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs (moderate) and donepezil (aricept) (minor) — 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.

What to actually watch for

What Mangosteen Itself Has Been Linked To

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

  • Kidney problems Worth acting on Additional detail

    “Orally, mangosteen extract up to 560 mg daily has been reported to cause abnormal urination. It is not known if this side effect was related to mangosteen.

Overlapping uses

What Amphetamine Is Prescribed For, and What Mangosteen Has Been Studied For

These two come up together because they touch the same health topic — not because they do the same job. Amphetamine is a prescription medicine with approved uses on its FDA label. Mangosteen is a supplement: what follows is what researchers have looked at it for, and how strong that evidence is.

Amphetamine is prescribed for: Amphetamine treats Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in patients 6 years and older. Adzenys XR-ODT, Dyanavel XR, and the amphetamine extended-release orally disintegrating tablet formulations are specifically approved for ADHD in this age group. Amphetamine Sulfate tablets and Evekeo (amphetamine sulfate tablets) are also approved for narcolepsy (a sleep disorder causing uncontrollable daytime sleepiness) and as a short-term aid in a calorie-restricted weight-loss program for exogenous obesity (weight gain from external factors like overeating) in patients who have not responded to other approaches.

Mangosteen has been studied for:

  • Obesity studied, not established Mangosteen has been studied for this. Natural Medicines rates the evidence: Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate Read what the research shows

    Mangosteen for obesity

    Oral mangosteen has only been evaluated in combination with other ingredients; its effect when used alone is unclear.

Effectiveness ratings and the research summaries above are the verbatim record from the Natural Medicines database, which grades evidence from “Effective” down to “Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate”. A rating below the top of that scale means researchers have looked at it — not that it works, and never that it can stand in for a prescribed medicine. Do not stop or replace Amphetamine on your own; if you are taking Mangosteen for the same health topic, tell your prescriber, especially if the medicine is being adjusted to a target.

About Mangosteen

What is Mangosteen?

Mangosteen
  • Antioxidant support
  • Anti-inflammatory support
  • Immune support
  • Skin health
  • General wellness

Mangosteen is a tropical fruit whose rind is rich in plant compounds called xanthones that act as antioxidants. While it is popular in juices and supplements for inflammation, immune support, and general wellness, strong human evidence for these benefits is limited. It is likely fine as a food, but talk with your pharmacist or doctor before using concentrated supplements.

Garcinia mangostana · Clusiaceae · Fruit, and especially the rind (pericarp) · Juice, capsules, tablets, powders, dried rind, extracts

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

Mangosteen: dosing

There is no standard, well-established dose for mangosteen supplements. Products vary widely in strength and form, from juices to capsules to powders.The best advice is to follow the directions on the product label and not exceed the recommended amount.

Taking Mangosteen and Amphetamine Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Mangosteen with Amphetamine?
We do not list a known interaction between Mangosteen and Amphetamine. 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.
Are Mangosteen and Amphetamine used for the same thing?
They overlap in purpose, which usually means the real question is whether you need both rather than whether they are safe together. This page lists the shared uses and how strong the evidence is for Mangosteen in each. That is a conversation for your prescriber, especially if Amphetamine is being adjusted to a target.
How was the Mangosteen and Amphetamine combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Amphetamine is filed under 6 classifications, and Mangosteen has documented interactions with 2 drug classes — none of Amphetamine'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 Mangosteen interact with any other medications?
Yes. Mangosteen has 125 documented drug interactions in our database — Amphetamine 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 Amphetamine interact with any supplements?
Yes. Amphetamine has documented interactions with 130 supplements in our database — Mangosteen is not one of them. The Amphetamine interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
