Drug & supplement interaction

Marsh Marigold + Dronabinol

Dronabinol brand names: Marinol, Syndros.

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 Marsh Marigold and Dronabinol 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.

Marsh Marigold and Dronabinol

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 Dronabinol and Marsh Marigold 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 Marsh Marigold at all — not against Dronabinol, 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 to actually watch for

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Marsh Marigold and Dronabinol May Share a Side Effect

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.

  • Diarrhea reported in 7.7% of FDA reports for Dronabinol Additional detail

    Dronabinol

    Listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Dronabinol, and in voluntary FDA adverse-event reports. Read the label on DailyMed ›

Effects for Dronabinol come from the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of its FDA label; effects for Marsh Marigold come from the Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, quoted above. Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 7,993 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Dronabinol that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Wording is matched across sources by our own clinical vocabulary, so treat this as a prompt to pay attention, not a diagnosis.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Dronabinol page

“A glass of grapefruit juice can push dronabinol (Marinol, Syndros), the prescription form of THC used for chemotherapy nausea and appetite loss, to higher blood levels than intended, amplifying dizziness, sedation, and its mind-altering effects. That is one of three major-rated interactions among the 151 supplements and herbs on file,…”

About Marsh Marigold

What is Marsh Marigold?

  • Skin conditions and warts
  • Cough and bronchitis (folk use)
  • Painful or irregular menstruation (folk use)
  • Constipation (folk use)
  • Joint and rheumatic complaints (folk use)

Marsh Marigold is a wetland plant in the buttercup family that has been used in traditional and homeopathic medicine, but there is essentially no reliable human evidence that it works for any condition. The raw plant contains irritant compounds and is considered toxic when eaten fresh, so it is generally not recommended as a supplement.

Caltha palustris · Ranunculaceae · Flowers, leaves, and roots (mainly in folk medicine) · Tinctures, homeopathic preparations, dried herb; rarely used today

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

Marsh Marigold: dosing

There is no established or standardized dose for Marsh Marigold, and no recognized safe amount for everyday use. When in doubt, it is safest not to use this plant at all.

From our Marsh Marigold monograph — the full record covers uses, side effects and every documented interaction.

About Dronabinol

What Is Dronabinol Used For?

Brand names: Marinol, Syndros

Dronabinol — available as capsules (Marinol, Dronabinol) and as an oral solution (Syndros, Dronabinol oral solution) — is approved for two conditions in adults. First, it treats anorexia (severely reduced appetite) associated with weight loss in patients with AIDS. Second, it controls nausea and vomiting caused by cancer chemotherapy in patients who have not gotten enough relief from standard anti-nausea treatments.

Both uses apply to all available formulations, but dosing timing and meal instructions differ between the capsule and oral solution products. Always follow the specific instructions for the product you have been prescribed.

Most-Reported Side Effects for Dronabinol

From FAERS, the FDA’s public side-effect reporting system (7,993 reports, all brands). Reports are voluntary and are not proof the drug caused the effect.

Nausea 894 reports
Fatigue 708 reports
Diarrhea 615 reports
Vomiting 591 reports
Decreased appetite 452 reports

Taking Marsh Marigold and Dronabinol Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Marsh Marigold with Dronabinol?
We do not list a known interaction between Marsh Marigold and Dronabinol. 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 Marsh Marigold and Dronabinol have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to one 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.
Does Dronabinol interact with any supplements?
Yes. Dronabinol has documented interactions with 151 supplements in our database — Marsh Marigold is not one of them. The Dronabinol interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
