Mountain Ash and Thiethylperazine Maleate

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 Thiethylperazine Maleate and Mountain Ash 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 Thiethylperazine Maleate

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Thiethylperazine Maleate is filed under 2 classifications — photosensitizing drugs, oral drugs. Mountain Ash has documented interactions with 1 drug class — the most serious being nephrotoxic drugs (moderate) — and none of Thiethylperazine Maleate’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.

We haven’t matched Thiethylperazine Maleate to its FDA label in our system yet, so we can’t compare its own side-effect list here — the leaflet that comes with your prescription is the authoritative list for Thiethylperazine Maleate.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Thiethylperazine Maleate

This page covers Mountain Ash only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Thiethylperazine Maleate page lists 37 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Alfalfa (moderate), Angelica Archangelica (moderate), Arrach (moderate) and Bergamot (moderate).

By severity: 1 major · 26 moderate · 10 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Thiethylperazine Maleate page

“Activated charcoal is the interaction to understand first with thiethylperazine maleate (Torecan, Norzine), a prescription anti-nausea medicine, and the list as a whole calls for real caution. Charcoal, the lone major-rated entry, can bind the drug in the gut and sharply cut how much is absorbed, potentially leaving the nausea untreated.”

About Mountain Ash

What is Mountain Ash?

Mountain Ash
  • Sore throat and hoarseness
  • Digestive upset and constipation
  • Cough and chest congestion
  • Mild urinary complaints
  • Source of vitamin C in folk medicine

Mountain ash (rowan) is a northern-hemisphere tree whose bright red berries are traditionally cooked into jams, syrups, and teas. There is very little reliable human research to support any medical use, and raw berries contain compounds that can cause stomach upset, so cooking is important. If you want to try it, talk with your pharmacist or doctor first.

Sorbus aucuparia · Rosaceae · Fruit (berries), and sometimes the flowers and bark · Cooked berries, jam or jelly, juice, syrup, tea, tincture

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

Mountain Ash: dosing

There is no established or standardized medicinal dose for mountain ash. It is most often consumed as cooked berries, jam, syrup, or tea rather than as a measured supplement.If you use a commercial product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed the suggested amount.
