Interaction report

Moneywort and Raltegravir

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 Raltegravir and Moneywort 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 Moneywort at all — not against Raltegravir, 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

What Raltegravir’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Moneywort. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Raltegravir’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. 3 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

Low mood Worth acting on mentioned in 10.5% of FDA reports for Raltegravir
Severe muscle breakdown Worth acting on
Muscle weakness Worth acting on
Vivid dreams or nightmares
Bloating or gas
Reduced appetite
Trouble sleeping
Stomach pain
Tiredness
Dizziness

Showing the 10 most notable of 14 label-listed effects — ranked by how unusual each one is across medicines generally, with serious effects weighted up.

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Raltegravir. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 16,361 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Raltegravir that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Moneywort’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Moneywort side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Moneywort has no side effects.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Raltegravir page

“For someone taking raltegravir (Isentress) to keep HIV suppressed, a steady drug level is what blocks rebound and resistance, and this list deserves genuine vigilance. The lone major-rated entry is activated charcoal, which can soak up the medicine in the gut and cut what reaches your blood.”

Where does our data come from?

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 Moneywort

What is Moneywort?

Wound healing
Mild diarrhea
Cough and respiratory complaints
Minor skin irritation
Mild bleeding (traditional)

Moneywort (Creeping Jenny) is a low-growing garden plant used in some folk traditions for wounds, coughs, and digestive upset, but there is very little scientific research to confirm any of these uses. Because solid safety and effectiveness data are lacking, it is best to talk with a pharmacist or doctor before using it, and to avoid it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Lysimachia nummularia · Primulaceae · Aerial parts (leaves, stems, and flowers) · Tea, dried herb, tincture, topical preparations

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

Moneywort: dosing

There is no established or standardized dose for Moneywort. Because it has not been studied in well-designed human trials, experts cannot recommend a specific amount that is both safe and effective.If you choose to use a commercial product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them. A pharmacist can help you review the product and decide whether it is appropriate for you. When in doubt, less is safer, and always start with the smallest amount.
